A friend of mine told me that this would be a pretty interesting book for me and I have no probs finding it on Amazon, but I’ve just seen that he’s written another book, \*\* Who Wrote the New Testament? : The Making of the Christian Myth\*\* which was written about 8 years later.

Can anyone tell me if the second book is an extension of the first or are they 2 completly different books?
