Reviews

This is a valuable contribution to understanding the Anglican Communion. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through professionals/practitioners; general readers. ( Choice , 1 December 2013)

The authors, as one might expect from an episcopal church, include three present or former archbishops, 13 bishops, 20 or so priests and 40-odd academics, many of them professors (with some overlap between the last two groups), so there is plenty of authoritative scholarship and expertise here. (Reference Reviews, 1 October 2014) The Wiley-Blackwell Companion to the Anglican Communion (WBCAC) is an unprecedented work on global Anglicanism. It offers a thorough account of the history, structures, members and major themes in Anglican thought, which is as comprehensive as it is comprehensible. As a guide to the Anglican Communion, it leaves no notable stone unturned. (Churchman, 1 August 2014) This is a valuable contribution to understanding the Anglican Communion. Summing Up: Recommended.
