Nicholas Thompson gained his PhD in Ecclesiastical History from the University of Glasgow in 2000 and lectured in Church History at the University of Aberdeen from 2001-2009. Since 2009 he has lectured in Church History at the University of Auckland. His first book Eucharistic Sacrifice and Patristic Tradition in the Theology of Martin Bucer appeared in 2005.

“Thompson should be commended for this book, which brings needed attention to Bucer’s Latin work on the Eucharist … This book will be useful to scholars, informing our understanding of Bucer’s arguments about the Eucharist and offering a clearer picture of all factors contributing to his increasing doubt that accommodation could be reached. Moreover, it clarifies Bucer’s position on the important question of the patristic church, and how he interpreted this model.”Michael S. Springer, University of Central Oklahoma. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 68, No. 4 (Winter 2015), pp. 1460-1461.
