Augustine remains one of the most influential theologians in Western Christianity, but his attitudes to women and sex are said to lie at the heart of the modern Church's confusion on these issues. Kim Power sets out what Augustine actually wrote about women.

In this book she tries to show that Augustine set up a theological symbol system which not only echoed but also reinforced the prejudices of his own age and contributed toward the subordination of women in succeeding centuries.

Power illustrates how, once Augustine became a Christian bishop, he never again had a close relationship with a woman, although many women came under his pastoral care.
