Review:
"this is a thought-provoking book, and Kainulainen should be praised for advancing the discussion about Fra Paolo in new directions. Anyone writing on Sarpi in the future will need to take this book into consideration."
Charles Keenan, Northwestern University. In: The Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. 66, No. 4 (2015), pp. 885-887.
"There is much to commend in Paolo Sarpi: A Servant of God and State. It can and should spur further research on Sarpi's thought no less than on his influence and legacy, and it offers yet another indication that the world of early modern Catholicism was as pervasively diverse as the worlds of early modern Protestantism. ... Kainulainen should be congratulated for inspiring such interest in his subject."
Benjamin Guyer, The University of Kansas. In: Sixteenth Century Journal, Vol. 46, No. 1 (2015), pp. 150-151.
