"The Oxford Handbook of Ecumenical Studies is an unparalleled compendium of ecumenical history, information, and reflection. With essays by nearly fifty experts across various fields, the Handbook is a major resource for all who are involved or interested in ecumenical work for reconciliation between Christians and for the unity of the Church.
