Comprehensive Introduction
As a comprehensive introduction and a terrific bibliographic resource for introductory through graduate level research, there is no finer text on this area. Furthermore, the changes in the new edition are terrific; they make the text more accessible and also, more coherent. This is a "must have" for any student of the Renaissance, Reformation, or liberal religious studies.

A must for any student/scholar of the Radical Reformation
Professor George Huntston Williams invented the term "Radical Reformation", and The Radical Reformation is a text that is indispensable to anyone who is serious about understanding this most important and pivotal period in history. I assign this text for my courses, and expect that my students will find it a valuable reference tool as they go on to teaching -- and to ministry within a dissenting religious tradition. While I recognize that there is a recent interest in the Radical

Reformation, with much that is new, exciting and compelling in scholarship and inquiry, I don't know how one could begin to understand the complexities of this period without having Professor Williams's book on the subject. It would be comparable to trying to understand the World Wide Web without knowing anything about computers. All of us who care about The Radical Reformation are indebted to Professor Williams, who is currently the Hollis Professor Emeritus at Harvard.

A Fitting Tribute
The Contentious Triangle is a tribute for Harvard Professor emeritus George Huntston Williams. Contrary to what Amazon.com lists in their entry for the volume, the editors are actually Rodney L. Petersen and Calvin Augustine Pater, and it is in honor of his 85th birthday, rather than his 90th. Both the scholarship and the contributors of this book are first rate. Contributors include Jaroslav Pelikan, Peter Gomes, J. Bryan Hehir, Edward Idris Cardinal Cassidy, Harold O.J. Brown, Heiko Oberman, and Demetrios Trakatellis, among others. This group of internationally repected church historians, church leaders, philosophers and theologians write on subjects that span the history of the church, in the spirit of Williams own overarching perspective of the discipline.

Great Text!
An great text about the Orthodox Church in Russia under the Communist regime. Excellent use of primary sources allows Alexander Webster to tell the whole story, pointing out key players, and specific examples.

I highly recommend this text for anyone interested in Russian, Christian, or Orthodox, history.
