It will be particularly useful for those who have already completed some theological study and wish to go deeper into questions of method. -- Frances Clemson, University of Cambridge, UK * Theology *\u003cbr\u003eAllen deserves much credit for this achievement . . . I'll likely find a way to incorporate this helpful methodological and theological book into my classes -- Eric E. Hall * Theologische Literaturzeitung, vol 139 *\u003cbr\u003eNotably detailed for a short introduction ... This is the most successful feature of the book: rather than making one reliant on the text, it acts as a catalyst to read the works of the theologians themselves with the themes brought up in mind ... For those beginning explicit study in theological method, this is a book well worth reading. -- Alex Garton, Heidelberg University * Modern Believing *\u003cbr\u003ePaul Allen offers an illuminating set of example to display—rather than try to explain—how theologians proceed to negotiate the set of questions with which revelation inevitably leaves us.  This approach should entice readers to explore one of the exemplars he offers, and so taste themselves how theologians actually operate.  The best way to introduce a discipline. -- David Burrell, C.S.C., McCauley Formation House, Nairobi Kenya\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction; 1.
