The âlong nineteenth centuryâ saw enormous transformations of theology, and of thought about religion, that shaped the way both Christianity and âreligionâ are understood today. Muers and Higton provide a lucid guide to the development of theology since 1789, giving students a critical understanding of their own âmodernâ assumptions, of the origins of the debates and the fields of study in which they are involved, and of major modern thinkers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eModern Theology\u003c\/em\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eintroduces the context and work of a selection of major nineteenth-century thinkers who decisively affected the shape of modern theology \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003epresents key debates and issues that have their roots in the nineteenth century but are also central to the study of twentieth- and twenty-first-century theology \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eincludes exercises and study materials that explicitly focus on the development of core academic skills\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"Muers and Higton have managed to write a textbook that is both astoundingly comprehensive and thoroughly engaging. Often teachers of modern Christian thought feel the need to choose between historical context and theological content. With its artful juxtaposition of explanation, analysis, and reflection, \u003ci\u003eModern Theology\u003c\/i\u003e manages to combine both without sacrificing the integrity of either.
