Baker's "Two-Streams" theory and McCoy's interpretation of federalism have been seriously challenged. FWIW, I do not recommend this volume as a sound introduction to the history of covenant theology.

Cornel Venema has provided a much sounder interpretation of Bullinger and Van Asselt has provided the definitive work on Cocceius (C. McCoy's entry point into federalism). The English transl. of Bullinger at the end is the most useful thing about the book.
