A profound scholar of Buddhism and of Christian theology, his critical and constructive reflections culminate in the seminal essay which is the corner-stone of this volume. Seven eminent scholars respond to the challenge of Abe's construal of "Kenotic God and Dynamic Sunyata." Abe demonstrates powerfully the dynamism of the Buddhist appreciation of the divine emptiness at the heart of being. His essay suggests how the doctrine of sunyata can provide a needed corrective to the reified understanding of God prominent in Jewish and Christian traditions. Abe opens the way for new and deeper engagement of these traditions with the wisdom of Buddhism. "Leading Christian and Jewish theologians Thomas J.J. Altizer, Eugene Borowitz, John B. Cobb, Jr., Catherine Keller, Schubert M. Ogden, Jurgen Moltmann, and David Tracy respond to Abe's challenge. From perspectives as diverse as American feminism, post-holocaust Judaism, process thought, and hermeneutics, they reply to Abe's proposals for considering God to be intrinsically self-emptying. Abe responds to these essays in a conclusion. Provocative and illuminating, The Emptying God shows how interfaith dialogue, as its very best, provides materials for the mutual transformation of all traditions." (jacket).

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Paperback. Foreword by Tony Blair. What is the moral agenda for the Labour Party as it recovers from its fourth consecutive General Election defeat? Where will it find the principles to fight for power now that Soviety-style Socialism has been so discredited? And how can the Labour movement relate to its historic past whilst also building for the future? This book arises out of the Christian convictions of lead Labour politicials and activists.

Arranged alphabetically, nearly 6,000 entries explore every monument, building, street, park and suburb of importance, as well as events, institutions and themes relevant to the city's past glory and present vigour. Here, rich in detail, alive with wit and well served by two indexes, is everything anyone could possibly want to know about London. For the third edition of this well-established book, the text has been extensively revised and updated, taking London into the twenty-first century. Contemporary images have been added to the more than 500 period prints, drawings and photographs, while new entries cover a host of current icons and reflect the capital's cosmopolitan and multi-cultural dimensions. Mosques and temples challenge the ubiquitous churches, and the glazed geometry of corporate power is saluted. Everything of relevance to the history, culture, commerce and government of the capital is documented. From the very first settlements through to the skyline of today, "The London Encyclopaedia" comprehends all that is London.'
