Magnus:
It is a fascinating book. My take can be summarized in three points:
(1) It shows the factors that go into dating and how finely balanced those factors are.
(2) Yet the thesis itself has problems especially in my view in the Johannine materials.
(3) It also suggests that efforts to push dates very late (into the early second century in some cases) are problematic.
