History & Biography
“The Reformer Heinrich Bullinger is little known. It is accordingly unknown that it is he who has decisively shaped the doctrine of Reformed Protestantism. In this little book, West and McKim succeed brilliantly in giving a publicly understandable introduction to Bullinger’s life and theology for the first time. To all who are interested in the origins of the archetypal Reformed doctrines, this book is highly recommended!”
History & Biography
“The richness of historical reality can never be encompassed accurately if only told from the perspectives of a few figures and their easily accessed texts. This is also true for the Reformation, a difficult time where the cradle of Reformed theology resides. We are thankful to the authors for presenting Martin Bucer, his impressive personality, and his important but often neglected contributions to the Reformation in an academic but comprehensible way.”
