Understanding Jonathan Edwards: An Introduction to America's Theologian
"This unusually helpful book is distinctive for how clearly its scholarly authors explain the wide-ranging significance of Jonathan Edwards for readers who are not themselves scholars. The inclusion of European commentators also demonstrates how wide contemporary interest has grown in Edwards as America's greatest theological voice. The book is, in equal measure, authoritative, accessible, and illuminating." --Mark A. Noll, author ofAmerica's God: From Jonathan Edwards to Abraham Lincoln"[Understanding Jonathan Edwards] was written for those who may have little to no knowledge of Edwards or the field of Edwards studies. What excites me about this is that it accomplishes what few (if any) have: an introduction to major themes in Edwards's thought that is usable for the classroom. ...Those teaching classes on Edwards will no doubt be grateful, and those looking for an introduction to Edwards' ideas will find a helpful roadmap." --Themelios"An elegant and enlightening introduction to understanding Edwards in terms of a lifelong captivation by thte beauty of God." --Touchstone
