Reviews for The Ecumenical Legacy of the Cappadocians (Pathways for Ecumenical and Interreligion Dialogue Series)
“This volume edited by Nicu Dumitrașcu is a bold endeavour to bring together the theology of Cappadocian Fathers. With its instructive, well-written essays along with its two or three outstanding contributions, the book is worth reading.” (Alexandru Szabó, Louvain Studies, Vol. 44 (4), 2017)
