Summary:[...] the absence of a paper specifically on Priestley's theology, which would have given detailed consideration to his views on revelation, and on such neuralgic doctrines as Christology, original sin and election, as well as to his writings on the sacraments, church order, discipline and catechetics can only be regarded as a lost opportunity - especially given the last word in the book's title, and Wykes's recognition that Priestley's 'work ... as a theologian ... proved to be his lasting contribution' (p. 48).
