Opis

The Critique of Theological Reason describes the nature and prospects of Christian theology in the postmodern era. It neither takes a monolithic view of postmodernism, nor does it believe that postmodernism monopolizes all that rings most true in contemporary thought. Instead, it takes the best of modern scientific theory about the nature and end of the universe, the best of modern British philosophy of art and morality, and the best of contemporary Christian theology, and outlines a philosophically viable theology for the thoroughly evolutionary world we occupy today.

Recenzje

Review of the hardback: 'Mackey paints on a large canvas with a rich and varied palette. If mind and reality have indeed gone missing from recent philosophy, Mackey's application of theological reason offers beguiling pointers to their restoration.' John Saxbee, Church Times
