Reviews
This volume is a good, perhaps ideal, introduction to Webster ... Allen has collected an illuminating group of essays that aptly present Webster's profound and comprehensive theology, which, because of the very nature of his thought, is not easy to summarize. The dogmatically inclined reader will enjoy this relatively brief but deep tour of Webster's teaching on the source, life, contexts, tasks, centers, and ends of the science of Christian dogmatics. * Reading Religion *
