About the Book

Although the doctrine of the Trinity is a core Christian belief, it remains contested in terms of how it is conceptualized and expressed. This essential guide expounds different conceptual models and the technical language used to express these models. Providing a complete overview, as well as new insights into the area, The Trinity: A Guide for the Perplexed is an essential read for students of Christian Theology.

Table of Contents:
Introduction Models Expressing the inexpressible? Trinity: Epistemology and Revelation Trinity: Church and Society Conclusion

About the Author :
Revd Dr Paul M. Collins, formerly Reader in Theology at the University of Chichester, Parish Priest on Holy Island, Northumberland, England.

Review :
Collins's unique competency in this doctrinal domain is evident on every page... the review of literature alone makes this book a key reference point for any serious study of the doctrine. 'If you want to know why this understanding of the Trinity has come to dominate certain parts of English systematic theology [...] then read this excellent book ... It is both scholarly and comprehensive ... This provides an invaluable introduction to this most central, distinctive and perplexing doctrine of the Christian faith.' Baptist Times, March 2009 "The book presents a wide range of the theological positions that have been taken over the centuries in talking about God as Trinity. It charts answers to the central questions of Trinitarian theology, such as what personhood might mean in God, how those Persons are related, and what communion in God might say about communion in the Church ...With an extensive bibliography and suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter, this is a useful, if not indispensable, guide. It is not for the perplexed, however, but rather for the already reasonably well-instructed reader who wants to take things further."Church Times, April 2009 "Unlike other books in the series of 'guides', this introduction assumes an already developed knowledge but it can also function as a textbook for beginners. It is highly recommended for anyone who wishes to deepen their approach to Trinitarian theology." -- Lucien J. Richard, Catholic Library World
