Rating:  Summary: An excellent source book on reformed thought Review: This book gives an excellent overview of reformed theological thought from its inception in the 16th century to the 18th century. I have nothing but praise for the editors' selection of works which ranges from the well known theologians such as John Calvin to the lesser known but equally important theologians such as Turretin. The selection of the works are also well balanced by not giving too much emphasis on any particular reformed theologian. The editors are to be commended for organizing the book around the main themes of reformed thought and for the excellent introductory essay on reformed theology at the begining of the book. I believe this is a great help for those who are just begining to explore reformed theology. Definitely a must-book for anyone who have an interest in reformed theology.
Rating:  Summary: Great Minds, Great Book Review: This sourcebook for great theology has helped me to understand the historical dynamics at work for the last two hundred years. Simple in format but not in the subjects tackled, it covers the minds that daily affect our worship. My only criticism is that too many subjects are included: a little more depth on major topics would make it even better. The sources are chosen with God in mind, and are an acomplishment in expression for the Christian faith. An excellent read, praise of Jesus Christ is throughout.
