The story of the numerous theologians and thinkers within the long, rich, and varied Christian tradition is freshly told with great insight and intelligence. I warmly recommend this book for its thoroughness, scope, clarity, and fairness."<br/>--<b>William K. Kay</b>, University of Chester<br/><br/>"I know of no better introduction to the essential elements of the contemporary discussion of the doctrine of God than this. The author surveys the biblical and historical materials, recounts recent European and North American responses to classical theism, and then draws African, Asian, and Latin American theologians into the conversation. An impressive accomplishment, this text is very useful to teachers and scholars alike."<br/>--<b>D.
