About this book
This book is no mere exercise in intellectual archaeology, for Crisp admirably draws out the implications of Shedds thought for the contemporary debate on the crucial subjects of sin and salvation. Crisp represents Shedds positions accurately and sympathetically, even when Crisp himself would develop the argument differently. I highly recommend this fine piece of philosophical theology (or, if one prefers, theological philosophy) and can only hope that it will stimulate renewed interest in Shedd - not only as an eminent theologian of great historical import, but as one who will now speak to the present generation. --Alan W. Gomes, Professor and Chair, Department of Theology, Talbot School of Theology, La Mirada, CaliforniaOliver Crisp convincingly shows that William G. T. Shedd was a reformed theologian whose dogmatics has a philosophical dimension which merits serious attention. In doing so he reveals the same intellectual qualities in evidence in his books on Jonathan Edwards and on philosophical clarity and rigour, theological sensitivity and excellent judgement. --Paul Helm, Emeritus Professor of the History and Philosophy of Religion, Kings College, LondonShedd possessed one of the great dogmatic minds of post-Reformation Protestantism, and this book will do much to commend him to a new readership. Written with Crisps characteristic acumen and sense of the scope and material cohesion of Christian doctrine, it will be read with great profit by students of historical and systematic theology. --John Webster, Kings College, Aberdeen
