Fulton that explores the life and legacy of Michael Servetus, a 16th century Spanish theologian, physician, and humanist who was ultimately condemned to death for his beliefs. The book traces Servetus' early life and education, his theological and medical writings, and his eventual persecution by both Catholic and Protestant authorities. The author also delves into Servetus' influence on later thinkers, including John Calvin and Isaac Newton, and examines his lasting impact on the fields of theology, medicine, and humanism.
