Media Reviews
In short, although an increasing number of theological readers have been produced in recent years, at this time The Modern Theologians Reader is the clear choice for those who are engaged with this time period. Some will undoubtedly wish that this or that text had been omitted or added; nonetheless, all should be able to agree that Ford and Higton have effectively addressed the needs of most modern Christian theology teachers. (Reviews in Religion & Theology, 3 July 2013) For a course on modern theology, this reader will soon become standard fare. (Religious Studies Review, 7 March 2013) This is a cornucopia of very well judged selections from significant and usually interesting theologians mostly Christian, from the early 20th Century. (Regent's Reviews, 1 April 2012)
