Summary: An excellent, handy quick reference
Comment: Trying to find out which Church council condemned Nestorianism? Need some background on Maximian of Ravenna or a quick history of the martyrdom of Perpetua and Felicitas? This volume is an excellent reference. Having used it as a resource for apologetical endeavors, I have found it supremely useful when confronted with historical personages or Christian teachings that were unfamiliar. Bibliographies at the end of each entry allow easy access to further research. I found two drawbacks: The first is regarding the large number of contributors - this ensures that the quality of the entries is somewhat uneven throughout. The second is the occasional 'political correctness' which creeps in to some entries - but I suppose that's unavoidable in a book published by a secular press. All in all, though, a very good reference.

Rating: 5
Summary: An excellent resource for all
Comment: This collection of articles is an excellent quick reference for all. While the contributors obviously could not report every detail due to space restrictions, they give concise bibliographies that become a springboard to greater insight into the topic. The paperback version is not pricy considering the ease and scholarship it puts at the fingertips of students and scholars alike.

Rating: 5
Summary: An Outstanding Collection
Comment: This is an excellent resource for students, pastors, scholars and people in the pews. The scholarship is of the highest level but the book is also very readable. The paperback version is reasonably priced.
