- "[By] Ronald P. Byars".
- Includes bibliographical references and index.
- "This book originated with my inaugural lecture as Professor of Preaching and Worship at Union Theological Seminary and Presbyterian School of Christian Education (Union-PSCE) on May 9, 2001. Parts of it were later published in 'Worship' 77 (March 2003)". -- Acknowledgements, p. ix.
- The author "provides an extensive historical and theological study of the development of eucharistic prayer in the Reformed tradition. He introduces early eucharistic prayer and its development in the Roman tradition, then traces the changes made during the Reformation and the reform of eucharistic prayer in modern times. Byars concludes with a recap of recent ecumenical discussions about the prayer and discusses the current and future place of the prayer in Reformed worship. A glossary of terms and extensive appendices with the texts of historic eucharistic prayers makes this a useful and welcome resource for scholars, students and clergy". -- back cover.
