Title: A Great Contribution to Patristic Scholarship
Product review: McGuckin writes with complete lucidity about very complicated dogmatic issues. Anyone who has struggled with the issues of Ephesus and Chalcedon will benefit from McGuckin's analyses. There is plenty of history here too, but the author is at his best at conceptual analysis. He clearly is on Cyril's side in the debates of the era, and presents Cyril as a champion of not only the divinity of Jesus, but also of his true and complete humanity.
