Summary
No other Christian theology in the past five hundred years has affected our Western culture as deeply as the worldview of John Calvin. It extends far beyond theological disciplines, as demonstrated by the list of contributors and subjects below. Calvin has inspired a large number of Christians to apply his thought to every form of human endeavor: the influence of his worldview continues to this day. Book jacket.
