The Book Called Isaiah

A highly original, major contribution to one of the most important and hotly contested issues concerning the book of Isaiah: who wrote it. The author's provocative and important conclusions point to the key role from beginning to end of the so-called `Deutero-Isaiah', hitherto believed to have been merely the author of chapters 40-55. Professor Williamson's book, based upon a more rigorous methodology than ever used before, sheds much new light on many passages ofIsaiah, and has had significant influence on future work on the subject.
