Rezensionen
Praise of this edition: 'Martin Luther is a readable work that provides a nuanced view of the reformer. It is evenhanded, offering praise when praise is due, for instance, of Luther's work in congregational music, but also criticism of the reformer when merited.'
- Rebecca C. Peterson, University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, USA in The Sixteenth Century Journal

Praise of the first edition: 'Attractively written, wise and judicious, with touches of engaging wit. It is now the best introduction to Luther in English'.
- Diarmaid MacCulloch, Professor of the History of the Church, University of Oxford
