David A. J. Richards, Edwin D. Webb Professor of Law at New York University, has published twenty-five books on moral philosophy, constitutional law, feminism, gay rights, and Shakespeare, including two books on how patriarchy threatens democracy with Carol Gilligan. A graduate of Harvard College (studying with John Rawls) and Harvard Law School, he received his doctorate in moral philosophy from Oxford University. He lives in New York City with his partner of fifty years, Donald Levy.
""The Antipatriarchal Jesus is a meditation on psychoanalysis and the teachings of Jesus that is revolutionary in its insights. David Richards is deeply influenced by James Gilligan and Donald Winnicott and brilliantly contrasts an authentic understanding of Jesus's teaching with the patriarchal Jesus the Romans created. Richards's Jesus, whom Winnicott called the first psychotherapist, is a paragon of nonviolence and equality, an antipatriarchal prophet who serves as a moral guide for the perplexed."" --Charles B. Strozier, author of Apocalypse ""A very readable and touching book, at once alive with personal and social history. Many readers will benefit and be appreciative. A subtle book of redemption, both kind and giving, a nourishing offering in its own right."" --Michael Eigen, author of The Psychotic Core ""In a time when many no longer identify with formal religion but want something spiritual, and the rules-based international order is dissolving before our frightened eyes, Richards avoids certitude about things of which we cannot be certain in favor of a universal relatedness on which we can confidently depend. He returns us to an inspirational gospel ethic of love, largely obscured since Constantine, and levers open 'the crack . . . where the light gets.'"" --John Alderdice, Senior Research Fellow, Harris Manchester College, University of Oxford
