"In this study, Irish Presbyterian theologian John Thompson provides a survey of the wide variety of modern thought on this important theme, examining the work of figures like Karl Barth, Karl Rahner, Wolfhart Pannenberg, and Jurgen Moltmann, and their views on such issues as the relationship of the trinitarian doctrine to Scripture, the Church, philosophy, politics, and society. Both teachers and student of theology will find Modern Trinitarian Perspectives an invaluable introduction to the diverse yet rich and inspiring aspects of this modern debate." -- from back cover
