Rethinking "Gnosticism": An Argument for Dismantling a Dubious Category, is a 1996 book by Michael Allen Williams.
[1][2] This is one of the first critical works that goes about comparing the established academic definitions of gnosticism to the texts discovered at Nag Hammadi.
The only things close to this would be the Christian heresiographical use of referring to these varied groups as "gnostics".
As well as the varied set of interruptions of the creator of the material world (Yahweh or demiurge) by these early groups.
Williams suggests a better and more adequate term for these heretical groups would be "biblical demiurgical traditions".
