Ex-bishop of Edinburgh, writer of controversial books, broadcaster - Holloway is interesting from any point of view. These memoirs 'from faith to doubt' are an extraordinarily honest account of his life and ministry, full of intelligent insights and courageously clear-sighted criticisms but also wit and humour. I followed his path towards doubt with deep fellow feeling (though his moving ending went further than I'd go!). It may have upset some conservative thinkers, but I found it exceptional.
