Culver is a brilliant teacher of God's Word, you won't be disappointed with this read!

I received a copy of Robert Culver Duncan's Systematic Theology, Biblical and Historical this past July (2006). I have not completed reading through - it is one of my reading projects, and I am just halfway through. It has been an interesting and informative read. Robert Duncan writes in an engaging manner. He has a good grasp of the historical background of the various doctrines. It is instructive to trace the development of each one historically. The historical approach itself merits a reading of this Theology.

It is 1280 pages - that is true. But it is a dense 1280 pages - the first book that I have read that requires good light and my reading glasses. On these large pages with small but adequate print is a lot of excellent reading - considerably more than most single volume systematic theologies.

He approaches theology in a balanced way, respectfully explaining positions that differ from his own, while unapologetically stating his own views and conclusions. As a bookseller, I intend to stock this book and heartily recommend it to those looking for a thorough, interesting, orthodox, evangelical and biblical Systematic Theology.
