Reviews
The Future Shapes of Anglicanism by Martyn Percy, comes from a definite liberal (or broad ) Anglican perspective, but the author's in-depth knowledge of both the Church of England and global Anglicanism and blending of sociology and theology make the book an interesting exploration of this conflicted Christian tradition. - ReligionWatch Vol. 32, No. 9 July 2017 Of interest to historians is Percy's championing of a version of broad church Anglicanism. (...) [the books] principal critique of the management-driven model now being proposed by church leaders is likely to remain valuable for some time. - J. Douglas Ousley, Church of the Incarnation, New York, US
