Rezensionen
"Aristotle has exerted a good deal of influence on early Christian thinkers, as has been recognized for some time now. This is the first book-length study on the subject and indeed a profound one." - Bryn Mawr Classical Review

"Discussing the philosophical sources of ancient Christian thought, most of us are usually content with the dictum that its development in terms of philosophical arguments was governed by Platonism. As a welcome antidote to such simplification, [Edwards] sets out to show that Peripatetic thinking, especially the interpretative tradition of the Categories, also exerted deep influence on major figures of early Christianity." - The Classical Review
