This book is an alphabetical dictionary of various sects existing from the beginning of Christianity to the eighteenth century.

Readers will find articles on leading ancient sects, such as the Gnostics, Montanists, Donatists, Arians, Pelagians, and Nestorians; as well as information on obscure sects, such as the Adamites, Artotyrites, Circumcellions, and Euchites. The author has collected a vast amount of historical information from ancient Christian writers, enabling readers to trace the rise, progress, and decline of particular sects.
