Theology: A Very Short Introduction by David F Ford
This Very Short Introduction provides both believers and non-believers with a balanced survey of the central questions of contemporary theology. David Ford's interrogative approach draws the reader into considering the principles underlying religious belief, including the centrality of salvation to most major religions, the concept of God in ancient, modern, and postmodern contexts, the challenge posed to theology by prayer and worship, and the issue of sin and evil. He also proves the nature of experience, knowledge, and wisdom in theology, and discusses what is involved in interpreting theological texts today. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
When he isn't writing, or pursuing his enthusiasm for photography, David Ford works with businesses ranging from start-ups to industry leaders. For the first two decades of his professional life, David was an attorney in private practice in Washington, D.C. His business life is now largely dedicated to seniors housing and issues relating to elder care. David is a graduate of Rollins College and the University of Virginia School of Law. His published writings range from a political-humor piece in the Washington Post to technical articles in mind-numbing legal journals. Visit www.blindinone.com to contact him.
