'This study is easily readable. This will make it valuable for students, who will no doubt also appreciate the sober balance of theory and exposition ... the book is ideally suited to an advanced undergraduate course. Burn's work is thoroughly commendable, and the study is recommended without hesitation.' - Augustine Casiday, Reviews in Religion and Theology 'A large part of what makes this book impressive - indeed, of what makes so many of Burns' arguments compelling - is Burns' obvious familiarity with Cyprian's corpus operum. That Burns has dedicated a significant portion of his professional life to the study of Cyprian is something that is evidenced on almost every page and in more than a few of the copious footnotes ... In sum, this book is to be recommended.' - Ephemerides Theologicae Loranieases 'The book is well-written and refreshingly candid about Cyprian's views, without ever seeking to belittle them. It will probably be the standard introduction to his thought for some time to come, and will help to shape the next generation's perception of the important legacy of the North African church.' -Churchman
