  It is widely recognized that the sixteenth-century Reformation remains one of the most exciting and fascinating areas of scholarship. A central and important question raised by modern research concerns the intellectual origins of that phenomenon, and the last twenty years have seen a revolution in our understanding of the Renaissance and medieval scholastic theology and their relation to the Reformation. Alister McGrath, an acknowledged expert in the field, here makes available the results of intense scholarly investigation, with important consequences for our understanding of the period.
