Contesting the Reformation Reviews

If you need to rid yourself of this idea, a good place to start would be to read this book. (Journal Religious History, 20 June 2014)

I have no doubt that it will find a well-deserved place on the reading lists of many an undergraduate introduction to the Reformation. I will certainly be including it in mine. (Journal of Ecclesiastical History, 1 April 2013)

Overall, an excellent book. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-level undergraduates and above. (Choice, 1 October 2012)

Reviewed in Times Higher Educational Supplement - 5 July 2012

This book is an invaluable resource - both a reference for students and a quick crib for teachers caught short by reading-list deadlines. (Times Higher Education Supplement, 5 July 2012)
