The book is extremely short. You can probably read it in one sitting during an afternoon or evening. It was 118 pages in hardback, about the same in paperback as I recall. It's worth reading in itself, a summary will do little for you. If you like it, try the Screwtape Letters (including "Screwtape proposes a toast") and then the Space trilogy (Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, That Hideous Strength). Last one is the best, but you need Screwtape and the others to really set it up properly.

The answer is simple. The other men of that era who were hailed as the expected Messiah, never said they were the Son of God. They were men who tried to oust the hated Romans and re-establish a literal kingdom of Israel. They and their followers came to naught. A Pharisee named Gamaliel (who was not a Christian) said, "Some time ago there was that fellow Theudas, who pretended to be someone great. About 400 others joined him, but he was killed, and all his followers went their various ways. The whole movement came to nothing. After him, at the time of the census, there was Judas of Galilee. He got people to follow him, but he was killed too and all his followers were scattered." (Acts 5:33-39) There was a heightened expectation amongst the Jews that the time for Messiah to appear was round about the time Jesus appeared. Well, Jesus never did what those two insurrectionists did. Jesus kept telling people that his kingdom was no part of the world, otherwise his disciples would have fought, but his kingdom was from heaven. Jesus constantly showed that his kingdom was not political but spiritual. This was not what Jews expected from their Messiah. To this day the Jewish nation rejects Jesus Christ as the Messiah because he did not fulfill their preconceived notions of an earthly kingdom with a man as a king. But Jesus accepted worship while he was on earth. When Thomas proclaimed him to be "My Lord and my God" Jesus did not rebuke him. And, it must be pointed out, this was after Jesus had been crucified and had died. That's what makes Jesus unique. That is the proof of his divinity. The tomb is empty. Muhammad's tomb contains the mortal remains of Muhammad. But Jesus was seen by over 500 people to ascend into heaven, after his resurrection.
