This handbook provides theological and philosophical resources that demonstrate analytic theology’s unique contribution to the task of theology. Analytic theology is a recent movement at the nexus of theology, biblical studies, and philosophy that marshals resources from the analytic philosophical tradition for constructive theological work. Paying attention to the Christian tradition, the development of doctrine, and solid biblical studies, analytic theology prizes clarity, brevity, and logical rigour in its exposition of Christian teaching. Each contribution in this volume offers an overview of specific doctrinal and dogmatic issues within the Christian tradition and provides a constructive conceptual model for making sense of the doctrine. Additionally, an extensive bibliography serves as a valuable resource for researchers wishing to address issues in theology from an analytic perspective.

In no place that I am aware of is [analytical theology's] diversity and rigor on display more than in the T&T Clark Handbook of Analytic Theology ... The volume has too many strengths to name. The entries are exceptionally well written and cover an impressive range of scholarly content, usually in ten to twelve pages. Covering such complicated content in such a compressed way must have been torture to these analytic theologians, but they pull it off well. * Reading Religion * There has always been a relationship between philosophy (love of wisdom) and theology (the study of God), even if that relationship has sometimes been a strained one. The T&T Clark Handbook on Analytic Theology is a landmark resource from a team of authors hoping to bridge that gap. * Things Above Us * The present volume provides an important overview of analytic theology ... [and] provides an accessible gateway for students into one of the most important developments in the field. * CHOICE * The project of "Analytic Theology" is still young and developing, and that is why this compendium of essays is so fresh and energizing, conjoining biblical, theological and philosophical insights. Emerging young scholars join hands with senior professors to chart what it means to reconsider classic Christian doctrine and ethics in the face of the most demanding contemporary challenges, whether philosophical, scientific or social. Each of these essays provides an entry into a realm of intense discussion and debate, often contentious, but always faith-enhancing. -- Professor Sarah Coakley, FBA, University of Cambridge, UK Analytic Theology is increasingly recognised as one of the most important and exciting developments in contemporary academic theology. One of its primary concerns is to model and to encourage the commitment to analytic rigour, lucidity and transparency that is de rigueur in academic philosophy. In this impressive volume, Arcadi and Turner have gathered together leading representatives of the field who exemplify these virtues in addressing a wide range of key loci in philosophical, systematic and spiritual theology. It will be evident from the diverse range of essays that 'analytic theology' does not represent a single system of thought or doctrine. What should be no less clear, however, is the extent to which their transparency facilitates critical engagement. This exemplifies the commitment to the truth question and open accountability that analytic theologians are so eager to encourage. Not only does this volume present the benefits of analytic theology to the theological guild, it should prove an invaluable resource for theology students more generally. No lecturer or student of theology should fail to have a copy of this volume on their shelves! -- Alan J Torrance, University of St Andrews, UK A theological edifice is only as strong as its philosophical foundation. This collection is proof that the conceptually and logically rigorous analytic method in philosophy provides a solid framework in which theological problems can be presented and addressed using clear and distinct ideas. -- Godehard Bruntrup, S.J., Executive Vice President, Munich School of Philosophy, Germany
