Notes

"[E]dited by Colin Buchanan, Bishop of Aston".

Includes bibliographical references.

"This Study presents Anglican ordination rites of the 1970s and 1980s, and the first two chapters analyze and compare their respective contents and character. There are ten different Churches and Provinces of the Anglican Communion (and the Churches of North and South India) thus represented, and there is also a note on the situation, as far as I know it, in the other twenty or so Churches. In virtually every case, a 'rite' actually means a complex provision for the ordaining of bishops, presbyters and deacons on separate occasions, each in the context of a eucharist". -- Presentation and Editing, p. 7.
