Reseña del libro "Calvin and his Influence, 1509-2009 (en Inglés)"
Who was John Calvin and why is he still read five hundred years after his birth? In this volume an international and interdisciplinary group of leading specialists explores both the reasons for Calvin's enduring influence and the story of his reception across five centuries.
