Very good book! The author did a wonderful job keeping things understandable even as near the ending chapters you can easily see how confounding and confusing the trinitarian philosophy and doctrine is.
The only reason I gave 4 stars is due to typos throughout the book. That may seem petty but there were some typos that could cause confusion regarding dates and where something fell chronologically that required you to go back and make sure you read correctly in another part of the book.
Nothing that a quick update and publishing on Kindle wouldn’t fix.
