"George Chryssides has performed a great service to students, their tutors and anyone interested in Christianity. Focussing on the principal Christian traditions of Roman Catholicism, Orthodoxy and Protestantism, Christianity Today is a thoughtful, learned, yet admirably accessible overview by a well-known scholar of religion. Carefully objective in its treatment of contested areas, the aim throughout is an unbiased presentation of the histories, teachings and practices of the different traditions without the privileging of any particular position. I warmly commend this lucid and engaging introduction." - Christopher Partridge, Professor of Religious Studies, Lancaster University, UK

Reviewed in the Church Times 17th September (UK) 'This book is written for the intelligent undergraduate'

Reviewed in the Methodist Recorder, 30th September (UK) 'Chryssides packs an enormous amount of information into a small space, while remaining as neutral and objective as possible in recording different views, both past and present'

'Offers a comprehensive overview of the main tenets of the Christian faith... An excellent primer.'

Church of England Newspaper

Christianity Today can be recommended as a brief introduction: excellent on history and biblical scholarship, and good on questions about the relationship between Christianity and science.
