Summary: Vital reference, fundamental history of christian thought
Comment: This text describes the history and progression of modern christian thought since the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. Highly readable without sacrificing an intelligent coverage of how christianity has evolved with other major historical movements. Highly recommended for those with particular interests in the history of christianity or historical interests in general.

Summary: A must have for theology students
Comment: If you are a student of theology, or just happen to be interested in theology, YOU MUST HAVE THIS BOOK! I own a number of books that offer introductions to modern theologians, but none of them are as good as this one.

First of all, it's readable. The articles, while thorough, help put very difficult and complex ideas in very simple forms.

Second, it's complete. The book covers every important modern theologian. It gives a brief biographical sketch, places the theologian in the context of particular movement/periods, lists their key works, summarizes their most important contributions to theology, and covers important critiques.

I consult this book constantly for a quick intro to a thinker I am not familiar with. For theology students, the book is a must have.
