Traditionalism and Radicalism in the History of Christian Thought

This book is concerned with the presentation and analysis of certain dogmatic issues such as christology, ecclesiology, pastoral work, anthropology, faith and bioethics among many others-all meant to illustrate how Christian thoughts stands between traditionalism and radicalism. It is both a dogmatic study and a historical overview of the topic.

"A very interesting and original tour through the history of Christian thought, based on extensive use of primary and secondary sources. I have never before seen a work quite of this kind...It promises to be a book with which other scholars will want to interact and it will stimulate lines of research, particularly in the field of modern theology." - Maurice Dowling, Lecturer, Irish Baptist College; member of the Institute of Theology, Queen's University, Belfast, UK
