An indispensable source book, this book has won itself a world-wide reputation since it first publication in 1943. It is also fasinating reading, containing "the hard facts of many disputed questions, the ammunition for controversy, the corrective to loose thinking and idle speech." The second edition has been enlarged to include Christian history through the beginning of the Ecumenical Movement. The book now spans the periods of the Fathers, the Church in the Roman Empire, the Creeds, Scholasticism, the Reformation, the Churches in Great Britain, and Roman Catholic pronouncements up to the eve of the Second Vatican Council. Documents are also included on the Church of South India and the meetings of the Council of Churches in 1947 and 1961.
This fully revised edition of Bettenson's widely acclaimed volume traces Christian history through the periods of the Fathers, the Church in the Roman Empire, the Creeds, Scholasticism, the Reformation, the Churches in Great Britain, and Roman Catholic pronouncements up to the eve of the Second Vatican Council.
