Recenzii
'Substantive reflection informed by the latest scholarship, critical analyses and counter questions from dialogue partners and those usually on the margins, provocative visions for a more just and redemptive ecclesial praxis - what more could readers of theological books ask for? A veritable theological feast indeed!' - Amos Yong, Regent University School of Divinity, Virginia Beach, VA, USA.
'"Inclusion" has become a fashionable word and a widely adopted goal in both Church and society. These essays, however, avoid the clichés and generalisations that can easily surround the subject, and instead look carefully at specific varieties of exclusion, recognised and unrecognised, and the very diverse challenges they present to the integrity of religious communities that claim to be welcoming or affirming. They combine personal and empirical observation with sophisticated tools of philosophical and theological analysis in a highly distinctive way. This is an unusual and very valuable collection.' - Archbishop Rowan Williams
Many scholarly books begin, as this one does, as "a conversation between a team of academics". Few such books are page-turners, as this one is. Eight of the nine dons whose discussions led to Transforming Exclusion teach at the University of Chester. On the evidence of this volume, Chester would be an excellent choice for any student looking for somewhere to do theology, where the subject is seen as having practical relevance.
