The Oxford Handbook of Early Christian Studies (Oxford Handbooks)
"Without doubt, this will become a major reference tool and a number of the chapters will find their way onto reading lists for classes studying early Christianity."  --Paul Foster, Expository Times 12/01/2010"...this book is a treasure trove. The editors have assembled an impressive bench of contributors and they tackle a staggering array of subjects...This hefty and wonderful volume reminds us just how preposterous an unnecessarily adamantine view of Christianity is and ever war."  --Jonathan Wright, Catholic Herald 23/02/2009
