In 376 Epiphanius, chief bishop of Cyprus, published, in three Books, an historical encyclopedia of heretical sects, with the arguments, chiefly scriptural, needed to counter them, and called it the Panarion (Medicine Chest). This volume, Books II and III of the Panarion, is chiefly concerned with the sects contemporary with him, the Arian, Manichaean and others. It thus describes the thought of the fourth century church, and includes a number of source documents, many of them found only here. This is the only full translation of Epiphanius in a modern language.

"The translation is both careful and readable. [...] This new edition extends the availability of the translated text of the Panarion, which is welcome.[...] this is an excellent English language translation of the text that will be widely consulted and cited." – Paul Foster, in: The Expository Times 124/7
