|  | The Truth, the Way, the Life by B. H. Roberts, Erich R. Paul, Stan Larson, Sterling M. McMurrin, Thom D. Roberts
Less than ten years before his death in 1933, B. H. Roberts, one of the most influential Mormon writers of the twentieth century, began work on the most important book that I have yet contributed to the Church. A prolific and respected defender of Mormon beliefs, Roberts wanted to consolidate LDS theological thought into a unified whole and to reconcile science with scripture. His final manuscript, The Truth, the Way, the Life, synthesized doctrine into three sections: the truth about the world and revelation, the way of salvation, and Jesus` life in shaping Christian character. He submitted his completed work to the LDS First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve, which, after a series of heated meetings, rejected it. Roberts`s views on evolution, the age of the earth, the pre-earth existence, and the eternal progression of God were deemed too controversial, so his masterwork went unpublished. With the support of the Roberts family, editor Stan Larson has corrected this sixty-year omission from the corpus of Mormon theology. AUTHOR: B. H. Roberts, Erich R. Paul, Stan Larson, Sterling M. McMurrin, Thom D. Roberts
