Preachers, Prophets and Heretics is a book published in 2012 to mark the 20th anniversary of the ordination of women as priests in the Anglican Church in Australia. It was edited by Elaine Lindsay and Janet Scarfe.
It was the first book to document and analyse the ordination debate and how it occupied church synods, ecclesiastical tribunals, and civil courts, as well as making media headlines. The book also highlights the accomplishments of the more than 500 female priests that had been ordained since 1992.[1]
