Abstract
The source of faith for billions and the cause of a thousand wars, no other person in history has inspired so many people as Jesus of Nazareth. Using the most scientific and historical research, along with computer graphic technology, this three-part series attempts to uncover what this First-Century peasant was trying to do and why.
