The author does well at seeing the value of what he has written for what it is and should be commended for not doing much to alter or expand it when given the opportunity. The work is a very accessible introduction to what Paul deems the powers and principalities and how they function. He is more optimistic about the powers than many others, seeing a possibility for redemption or at least for them to act according to God's purposes.
What I find most unfortunate about this edition is how it has John Howard Yoder plastered all over it. Yes, Yoder is the translator; he is also the popularizer both of Berkhof's little work and a political philosophy of Christianity deeply informed by the powers. But Yoder has been appropriately canceled for not living according to the profession of nonviolence; Berkhof and his work should not be sullied in the process.
