What it is

Theology arranged as a series of disputed questions, each stating the state of the controversy precisely before answering it.

Why it lasted

The high point of Reformed scholasticism, and the textbook at Princeton until Charles Hodge replaced it with his own in the 1870s.

Where to read it

Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.

These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
