'The clarity and economy of the essays will prove useful to instructors introducing students to Calvin and his world, and to more advanced students seeking a clear overview of an aspect of Calvin's thought and career.' J. Harrie, Choice 'The purpose of R. Ward Holder's splendid handbook ... is not to justify the ways of Calvin to men. And yet it may partly achieve that, since its mission is to explain him: to look at his myriad contexts, social, political, theological, and more.' Alec Ryrie, Church Times
