"The work's audience is "the student who is taking introductory classes in theology," though a resource as distinctive and informative as this quickly will prove its usefulness to others as well." (CHOICE, December 2009) "Worth the money, intellectually sound, and well targeted." (Reference Reviews, January 2010) "It stands out as an excellent resource for anyone interested in the development of theology." (Theological Librarianship, December 2009)"Care has been taken to ensure that theologians from all periods of Christian history have been included and that Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, liberal, and feminist perspectives are represented." (Booklist, November 2009)"The Blackwell Companion to the Theologians nicely complements existing reference works and is an appropriate addition to theological and research libraries as well as libraries with strong collections in Christianity." (Religion and Spirituality, November 2009)
