Reviews
"A stimulating book which will deservedly attract a wide readership."--John Creed, Times Higher Education Supplement "A fascinating . . . account of early Christian thought. . . . Readable and exciting."--Robert McAfee Brown, New York Times Book Review "Wilken draws on a variety of sources to present 'pagan criticism' of Christianity from the beginning of the early second century to the late fourth century. . . . A fascinating book."-- Publishers Weekly "A unique contribution to the subject in English. It is written with understanding, humanity, and wit and should be useful to students of history and religion at both the graduate and undergraduate levels."--Caroline T. Marshall, History: Review of New Books "[This book] is the pioneering study in English of Roman impressions of Christians during the first four centuries a.d."--E. Glenn Hinson, Christian Century "This gracefully written study . . . draws upon well-known sources--both pagan and Christian--to provide the general reader with an illuminating account . . . [of how] Christianity appear[ed] to the Romans before it became the established religion of the empire."--Merle Rubin, Christian Science Monitor "This work of Wilken will be a source of much thought and discussion for patristic and theology scholars as well as classical historians. . . . An easy style, good scholarship and a respect for the reader makes this book both enjoyable and informative."--Robert A. Antczak, Classical World "Indispensable for anyone who wants a richer sense of the world in which the Church first made its way."--Robert Royal, Crisis Magazine "Robert Wilken has given us the chance to see the emerging Christian faith as viewed by its contemporaries who did not welcome its appearance. . . . Clearly written and cogently presented, the book is a mine of information which any pastor or student of the Christian faith would do well to make the acquaintance of. The book is worth the reading."--Paul J. Achtemeier, Interpretation "This excellent and informative study adds a new dimension to the history of early Christianity, valuable for the Roman as well as the ecclesiastical historian."--Everett Ferguson, Religious Studies Reviews "The general reader will be well served by the clear and engaging exposition. . . . Useful as a classroom text."--Robert A. Kaster, Journal of Religion "Should fascinate any reader with an interest in the history of human thought."--Phoebe-Lou Adams, Atlantic Monthly "Wilken's account of Julian's assault on Christianity, though relatively brief, is arguably the best available in English. . . . His sympathetic understanding of the main competitors of Christianity, coupled with his attention to the social and cultural environment, his good judgement, and the clarity of his style provide an object lesson to all students of the historical progress of the early Church."--Peter Garnsey, "A stimulating book which will deservedly attract a wide readership."--John Creed, Times Higher Education Supplement "A fascinating . . . account of early Christian thought. . . .

Synopsis
This book, which includes a new preface by the author, offers an engrossing portrayal of the early years of the Christian movement from the perspective of the Romans. "A fascinating . . . account of early Christian thought. . . . Readable and exciting."--Robert McAfee Brown, New York Times Book Review "Should fascinate any reader with an interest in the history of human thought."--Phoebe-Lou Adams, Atlantic Monthly "The pioneering study in English of Roman impressions of Christians during the first four centuries A.D."--E. Glenn Hinson, Christian Century "This gracefully written study . . . draws upon well-known sources--both pagan and Christian--to provide the general reader with an illuminating account . . . of how] Christianity appeared to the Romans before it became the established religion of the empire."--Merle Rubin, Christian Science Monitor, The early Chrisitian movement is traditionally studied through the eyes of early Christian writers and commentators rather than through its critics. Taking the latter approach, this book studies Christianity form the early 2nd to late 4th century through the words of pagan observers and 'outsiders' to the Christian religion., This book, which includes a new preface by the author, offers an engrossing portrayal of the early years of the Christian movement from the perspective of the Romans.

- g***2 (945)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufBook arrived sooner than expected in great packaging. I contacted the selle b/ they sent the correct book but whose condition was a little less than described. They communicated with me immediately. They apologized, gave me a full refund without my asking. I fully look forward to purchasing from them again. It provides revenue to fund local job training, education, and community programs that help people find employment and achieve financial stability. Thank you!
- n***u (189)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufI bought several books from this seller and this book was not included with the total package. I pointed this out to the seller and although they looked for the missing item, they couldn't find it. The seller refunded the cost of the book plus they removed part of the shipping cost. This was a smooth transaction. I will continue to purchase more books from this organization. In fact I not only ordered a second set of books, which all arrived, I plan to order still more books in the future.
- 1***2 (5)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI’m very satisfied with my purchase. Although it did arrive a few days late, it was definitely worth $18 for a densely packed, 1000 paged textbook with lots and lots of questions to reinforce your understanding. In terms of the seller and the condition of the book, the seller was very truthful in their description, and marked the book as “acceptable”. I’ve only explored a fraction of the book, and as far as I’m concerned, the majority is “good”. I’m very happy, it looks great, great quality.Fundamentals of Physics Extended (Nr. 286648984516)
