Product Description
Contemporary Review,
"A valuable guide and introduction has been brought up to date and made even more useful." --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Book Description
This is an expanded edition of a book first published by OUP Oxford in 1964. The second edition appeared in 1968.

This comprehensive work on the text of the New Testament provides information about ancient and newly-discovered manuscripts, and offers various interpretations of the significance of manuscript evidence. It contains references to more than one hundred and fifty additional books and articles dealing with Greek manuscripts, early versions and critical studies of witnesses to the text of the New Testament. Designed for the student, the author discusses a variety of textual problems, simple and
complex. He also gives an objective account of the several schools of textual methodology, while indicating what in his view is the most satisfactory procedure for beginners to practice.

For this third (and first paperback edition), the author has added an appendix describing recent advances in the textual criticism of the New Testament since 1964.
