Guides to Theological Inquiry series

This series is intended to introduce students, scholars, clergy, and theologians to those academic methods, disciplines, and movements that are most germane to contemporary theology. Neither simple surveys nor exhaustive monographs, these short books provide solid, reliable, programmatic statements of the main lines or workings of their topics and assessments of their theological import.
