Christian History: An Introduction Hardcover - 2013
by Alister E. McGrath
From the rear cover
Written by one of the world's leading theologians and the author of numerous bestselling textbooks, this comprehensive textbook explores over two millennia of Christian history. Accessibly structured by historical period, and informed by the latest research, it goes beyond a simple denominational history in analyzing the impact of Christianity as a social, political, and intellectual phenomenon, as well as its legacy on art, architecture, and the natural sciences.
Tracing the development of all three branches of Christianity - Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox - and providing context to Christianity's origins and its links to Judaism, the book adopts a truly global perspective. McGrath extends his focus beyond the West to explore the expansion of Christianity and related issues across Asia, Latin America, and Africa. Combined with coverage of theology, history, and culture, this global viewpoint will ensure Christian History: An Introduction will be a valuable addition to the field and to any student's bookshelf.
