This volume offers an accessible and rich introduction to the Presbyterian tradition. It will be of great service to the church and the academy, especially as a resource regarding the historical distinctiveness of Presbyterianism.

Peter James Yoder, Montreat College Montreat, NC 28757, USA, Religious Studies Reviews

I am not really aware of any comparable work like this as an encompassing book.

Jack C Whytock, Haddington House Journal

Presbyterianism emerged during the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation. It spread from the British Isles to North America in the early eighteenth century. During the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Presbyterian denominations grew throughout the world. Today, there are an estimated 35 million Presbyterians in dozens of countries. The Oxford Handbook of Presbyterianism provides a state of the art reference tool written by leading scholars in the fields of religious studies and history. These thirty five articles cover major facets of Presbyterian history, theological beliefs, worship practices, ecclesiastical forms and structures, as well as important ethical, political, and educational issues. Eschewing parochial and sectarian triumphalism, prominent scholars address their particular topics objectively and judiciously.
