This first volume of Herman Bavinck's Reformed Dogmatics is exceptional. Bavink addresses the question of the nature of dogmatic discourse after Schleiermacher with an acute sense of what is at stake. His chief contribution lies in his naming the secular sciences' claim of neutrality as deceptive. Here his relation to Abraham Kuyper and later Herman Dooyeveerd and Cornelius Van Til are apparent. He is to be preferred above Kuyper, however, for his historic treatments of dogma and for his handling of 19th century theological developments.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0801026326, Hardcover)

In partnership with the Dutch Reformed Translation Society, Baker Academic is proud to offer the first volume of Herman Bavinck's complete Reformed Dogmatics in English for the very first time. Bavinck's approach throughout is meticulous. As he discusses the standard topics of dogmatic theology, he stands on the shoulders of giants such as Augustine, John Calvin, Francis Turretin, and Charles Hodge. This masterwork will appeal to scholars and students of theology, research and theological libraries, and pastors and laity who read serious works of Reformed theology.
