Review:
"He expresses what spirituality ought to be about, the right to wander here and there throughout God's love, often crisscrossing denominational lines (religion) in leaps that seem almost contradictory, but express where the author has been drawn to God. This honesty, this demand for clarity of thought and content, produces yet another edition of Macquarrie's religious thought that capture a lifetime of faith and a lifetime of hunger." Resources Hotline, March 2002 "Few authors can aspire to Macquarrie's encyclopedic breadth and clarity of coverage now happily available again I this newly enlarged and updated edition. From the more obscure traditions of idealist philosophy, through a broad range of multicultural perspectives prominent since the 1960's, to the current debates over postmodernism, Macquarrie's genius for concise exposition and critique will serve as a dependable and welcome guide for today's students. " Christopher Morse, Dietrich Bonhoeffer Professor of Theology and Ethics Union Theological Seminary, NY--Sanford Lakoff "For years, John Macquarrie's TWENTIETH-CENTURY RELIGIOUS THOUGHT has long been a trusted resource for students of religion. His careful summary and thoughtful analysis of the course of theological reflection provides an invaluable map for territory that is often confusing. The new edition concludes the story of the twentieth century Macquarrie has been tracing and defines theological trajectories at the beginning of the new millennium." Mark C. Taylor, Cluett Professor of Humanities, Williams College--Sanford Lakoff "Twentieth-Century Religious Thought is widely known as a masterly survey of the period. Now it can reflect its title in full by covering the whole century. Macquarrie's penetrating comprehension and clear exegesis of such a bewildering variety of diverse schools of thought and individual philosophers and theologians are astonishing."--Sanford Lakoff "I know of no one on the current theological scene who has greater ability to summarize and describe varying points of view with such scrupulous fairness and clarity, and yet maintain a distinctive position."--Sanford Lakoff
