Críticas:
'The Mighty and the Almighty is probably the most important English-language contribution to a constructive theology of political authority since Oliver O'Donovan's The Desire of the Nations.' Studies in Christian Ethics
'Nicholas Wolterstorff guides the reader through the world of political theology, in a way that is refreshingly clear and well reasoned. The book ... retain[s] the conversational tone and accessibility required in a lecture and desirable in any written introduction to a complex field. ... It is refreshingly Christian in its approach ... a lively analysis of the freedom the Church ought to enjoy in the liberal democratic state.' Stephen Farrell, Search: A Church of Ireland Journal
