Description
The Oxford Handbook of Systematic Theology brings together authoritative accounts of current research in Christian systematic theology. This comprehensive survey covers all major areas of study, providing a thorough understanding of the discipline and its prospects for researchers and teachers. Organized thematically, the Handbook examines key topics in systematic theology, including questions of sources and norms, relations to other fields of enquiry, and major trends in current work. Each chapter provides an analysis of research and debate on its topic, focusing on doctrinal rather than historical questions and major debates. The authors, leading practitioners of the discipline, offer expert guidance and creative suggestions for the future direction of study. Readers can expect authoritative insights into Christian doctrine, drawing from a range of perspectives and expertise.
