<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"This idea for this book emerged when Stephen Burns co-taught a class on Twentieth Century Anglican Theologians with Kwok Pui-lan at Episcopal Divinity School (EDS) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where both he and Pui-lan were on faculty. Pui-lan and Stephen were agreed that no existing book could serve as a core text for the class, given the Anglo-centric or North Atlantic bias of so much of the literature that exists. Stephen thanks Pui-lan for seeking alternatives to the usual suspects in that class, as in so much of her work."--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A scholarly volume that reflects the rich diversity of Anglican theology</b></p> <p>With contributions from an international panel of writers, <i>Twentieth-Century Anglican Theologians</i> offers a wide-ranging view that presents a survey of over twenty diverse Anglican thinkers.
