Christianity and the Disciplines: The Transformation of the University - Paperback

by Mervyn Davies (Editor), Oliver D. Crisp (Editor), Gavin D'Costa (Editor)

This volume will show how various intellectual disciplines (most found within the modern university) can learn from theology and philosophy in primarily methodological and substantitive terms. It will explore the possible ways in which current presuppositions and practices of the displine might be challenged. It will also indicate the possibilities of both a "Christian Culture" in relation to that discipline or the way in which that discipline might look within a real or theoretical Christian university.
