'Professor Pelikan's series marks a significant departure, and in him we have at last a master teacher.'-Marjorie O'Rourke Boyle, Commonweal McGrath, Times Higher Education Supplement 'This volume, like the series which it brings to a triumphant conclusion, may be unreservedly recommended as the best one-stop introduction currently available to its subject.'-Alister E. And there can hardly be a more lucid, readable and genial guide to it than this marvellous work.'- Economist 'Knowledge of the immense intellectual effort invested in the construction of the edifice of Christian doctrine by the best minds of each successive generation is worth having.

Jaroslav Pelikan begins this volume with the crisis of orthodoxy that confronted all Christian denominations by the beginning of the eighteenth century and continues through the twentieth century in its particular concerns with ecumenism.
