Avatar and Incarnation by Geoffrey Parrinder

This text looks at the origin and development of the doctrine of the "divine being". The author offers an insight into the role this earthly manifestation of the divine plays in the major religions of the world, and looks at the implications for belief, devotion, worship and understanding.
"Dr Parrinder is a distinguished contributor to what literature there is on the subject… He provides a much-needed critical survey of a difficult and complex area" * The Times Literary Supplement *
Geoffrey Parrinder was Emeritus Professor of the Comparative Study of Religions at Kings College London. He died in 2005 after having become one of the foremost in his field. During his long and successful life, his books were widely published, having been translated into twelve languages.
