Inhaltsangabe

Using the example of the Book of Daniel, this book aims to show how a critical approach is necessitated by the nature of the Bible and how this approach may be applied. The first part outlines general principles. It deals with questions of authorship and considers the way in which biblical stories have developed. Part two, "Criticism in Practice: the Case of Daniel" offers a full-scale exercise in the application of critical methods.
