SOME PRESS NOTICES.
" Mr. Mead has done his work in a scholarly and painstaking fashion." — The Guardian.
" The ordinary student 9f Christian evidences, if he confines his reading to the ' Fathers,' learns nothing of these opinions [the so-called Gnostic ' heresies '] except by way of refutation and angry condemnation. In Mr. Mead's pages, however, they are treated with impartiality and candour These remarks will suffice to show the unique character of this volume, and to indicate that students may find here matter of great service to the rational interpretation of Christian thought." — Bradford Observer.
" Whatever may be the worth of the Gnostics' speculations, there seems to be little doubt that these early heretics, among whom were some deep thinkers, as well as men of blameless character, have not been very impartially dealt with by their orthodox opponents, and those who wish to see their views treated in a more sympathetic way than has been usual with ecclesiastical historians, will do well to read this able volume of Mr. G. R. 8. Mead. . . . . The book, Mr. Mead explains, is not intended primarily for the student, but for the general reader, and it certainly should not be neglected by anyone who is interested in the history of early Christian thought." — The Scotsman.
