A well-structured and researched piece of work written in a pleasing style…an excellent job of absorbing and assessing the work of the Westminster faculty in a way that is sympathetic without lapsing into hagiography.
— Dr. Brian P. Irwin, assistant professor of Old Testament/Hebrew scriptures, Knox College, Toronto School of Theology, University of Toronto
[This study is] crucial for understanding the way theological traditions develop and even diverge from the founding generation's original vision…particularly valuable for critics and defenders of recent changes at Westminster.
— Dr. D.G. Hart, author of The Lost Soul of American Protestantism
An important study that is not merely an intellectual history. Though his study centers upon the Reformed tradition, it is of perennial importance for all evangelicals. He showcases the interaction between faith and critical scholarship….to see and understand more fully the interaction between the church and the academy, between faith and unbelief.
— Dr. J.V. Fesko, associate professor of systematic theology and academic dean, Westminster Seminary California, Escondido, California
An invaluable backdrop to the current discussion of the interaction between confessional commitments and Biblical scholarship…Yeo shows how the nature of that response shifted over the period surveyed from a stance of strong antithesis to a more integrationist position, all the while seeking to uphold a conservative Reformed theology.
— Dr. Iain M. Duguid, professor of religion/Old Testament, Grove City College
