The ''Encyclopedia of Christianity'' is a one-volume encyclopedia published by Oxford University Press and edited by John Bowden of Nottingham University and King's College, London.〔(The Christian Century - Review )〕〔Richard N. Ostling, ("Two reference works rank as 2005's best books on religion" ), Associated Press in ''Arizona Daily Sun'', December 9, 2005.〕 It contains over three hundred articles on a variety of Christian topics and themes. Some of the authors include professor John Barton from Oxford University, Cynthia B. Cohen from Georgetown University and Martin Marty from the University of Chicago. It contains twenty one color pictures and ninety six black and white illustrations.〔(Publishers Weekly - Review )〕〔Douglas A Sweeney. "Books Reviews and Notes". Church History. Vol 75. Issue 4. December 2006. pp 961 - 962. (Cambridge Journals ).〕 In his introduction Bowden noted that most Christians have only a limited understanding of the traditions of their own religion.〔 ''The Christian Century'' called the encyclopedia "a major scholarly achievement" but noted that it relied entirely on scholars from Europe and North America.〔 Religion writer Richard Ostling called this book, together with its companion release, the ''Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church'' (3rd ed.), "2005's books of the year in religion", and commented that the ''Encyclopedia'' takes a "relatively moderate approach to literary and historical disputes."〔 ''Publishers Weekly'' said: "Overall, this encyclopedia is a must-have for any Christian reference shelf." 〔 ==See also==
