Joseph Owens is a Roman Catholoic priest who wrote a number of boks. In 1974 he wrote a book called Dread, The Rastafarians of Jamaica, having spent time working and living with the Rastafari movement in Kingston, Jamaica. In the book he attempts to allow the rasta to explain their doctrines in their own words, while examining all the key doctrines in different chapters. The book is a rich and unique source of material about Rastafarian beliefs in the developmental stage of the religion. He has also written books on Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas, and a number of other books on Christian metaphysics.
