Editorial Reviews

"The book's strength is its accessible format and focus, which doesn't require any background knowledge. One usually doesn't get this kind of compact, introductory information in one place. An extremely handy reference for public and academic libraries." - Library Journal

'The book's strength is its accessible format and focus... One usually doesn't get this kind of compact, introductory information in one place.' - Library Journal

'Selecting just 50 from among all the Christian thinkers who lived over the last two millennia is a difficult task... McEnhill and Newlands have made excellent choices in this book.' - Library Journal
