Su questo libro

Recensione:

"This is, quite simply, a wonderful book. It's vintage David Ford, yet all new - providing an ever deeper integration of themes which is profoundly creative and invites the reader to engage and make fresh connections. David Ford more successfully than any other theologian I know, bridges the concerns of the academy and those of the worshipping communities."
--Iain Torrance, President of Princeton Theological Seminary
 
"David Ford's The Future of Christian Theology is a manifesto for a theology adequate to its new context in the twenty-first century. It's a bold, powerful and provocative vision."
--David H. Kelsey, Weigle Professor Emeritus of Theology, Yale Divinity School
