I know nothing about this book other than that it has been nominated for the Diagram Prize for Oddest Book Title of the Year.

The article's description of the book:

The author reveals that Jesus is a personification of the Holy Mushroom, Amanita Muscaria.

Other nominees for this prestigious award can be read at the linked article, which concluded with this:

The Diagram Prize for Oddest Book Title of the Year was first awarded in 1978 to Proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Nude Mice.
