Ranging across many topics and disciplines, Ulrich's theology is an affirmation of the goodness of the human condition that begins by refusing to accept it on its own terms. -- Gerald McKinney, University of Notre Dame, USA\u003cbr\u003eAfter the trauma of German history during the twentieth century and the crisis that trauma initiated for Christian theology and ethics, a new generation of German thinkers set about rediscovering the proper foundation for theological ethics in God’s action in the midst of a fallen world. As the essays in this volume clearly demonstrate Hans Urlich’s participation in that project has borne rich fruit. Here is an approach to ethics that will be of enduring value precisely because it is founded, as theological ethics must always be, upon attentiveness to the presence and the work of God. -- Murray Rae, University of Otago, New Zealand\u003cbr\u003eWe have waited a long time for a translation of \u003ci\u003eTransfigured not Conformed\u003c\/i\u003e. It has been well worth the wait. Ulrich has written a masterpiece in any language. The breadth and depth of his scholarship are impressive. Occasionally a must read appears in the academy. This is one of those occasions. -- Brent Waters, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary, USA\u003cbr\u003eThe wonderfully crafted collection, itself the culmination of a lifetime of incisive engagements, gifts us with a beautifully interwoven system of thought that is not only timely and humane, but itself punctuates a timeful humanism, an account of the apocalypse of God in the humanity of the Word incarnated in the divinity of the world. -- Jonathan Tran, Baylor University, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003e Part I.
