F. Torrance's <em>Incarnation: The Person and Life of Christ</em> presents the material on the work of Christ, centered in the atonement, given originally in his lectures delivered to his students in Christian Dogmatics on Christology at New College, Edinburgh, from 1952-1978. Like the first volume, the original lecture material has been expertly edited by Robert Walker, complete with cross-reference to Torrance's other works. Readers will find this the most readable work of Torrance and, together with <em>Incarnation</em>, the closest to a systematic theology we have from this eminent theologian.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Continuing the exploration of the mystery of the Son of God begun in <em>Incarnation, </em> Torrance turns his attention in this second volume to the work of the incarnate Savior, with the purposiveness, analytical penetration and spiritual lucidity which mark him out as one of the most weighty dogmaticians of the modern Reformed tradition.</p>--John Webster, professor of systematic theology, University of Aberdeen<br><br><p>Admirers of the theological work of Torrance will rejoice that his lectures on the Atonement have been commendably collected and edited in a form that does justice to the intent of Torrance.</p>--Casimir Bernas, Religious Studies Review, September 2010<br><br><p>This volume is a gift. It is carried out in deep awareness of God's grace towards humanity in Christ and his Spirit, likewise of the Bible, patristic theology, and John Campbell's work. The result is a theology of the atonement along the lines of Jesus' vicarious representation of humanity before God that avoids what Torrance considers to be crude theologies of the atonement, including penal substitution. It is now incumbant on the evangelical world to clarify its relationship to Torrance and to appropriate the best of his rich view of the atonment.</p>--Scott Harrower, Scottish Bulletin of Evangelical Theology<br>
