Product Description
by Robert Song (Editor), Brent Waters (Editor), Rowan Williams (Foreword by)
Oliver O'Donovan is widely regarded as one of the preeminent Protestant Christian ethicists of our time. His teaching and scholarship have exerted a profound influence on countless moral theologians.
This volume honoring O'Donovan shows how the various contributors -- themselves distinguished scholars -- have developed their own thinking through serious engagement with O'Donovan's work. Significantly, they build upon, expand, and critique the agenda for Christian ethics that O'Donovan has been instrumental in constructing. As Robert Song and Brent Waters say in their introduction, "To genuinely honor O'Donovan, one cannot remain content with reciting but must risk one's own exposition."- Contributors:
