About this book
Reviews
“This book introduces a mosaic of voices, narratives and conversations important for Christians not only in the Asia-Pacific, but also in other places where the connections between different forms of Christianity and different forms of colonialism need to be examined. It is also a helpful resource for scholars, students and religious leaders interested in increased collaboration between religious studies and postcolonial theories.” (Raimundo C. Barreto Jr., Scottish Journal of Theology, Vol. 701 (3), August, 2017)
"This collection of essays presents a balanced mix of theological contributions on scripture, gender studies, ecology, inculturation, history, law, and missiology. What makes them distinctive are the perspectives from which they are written. The perspectives are one of empowerment which has transformed the formerly voiceless into strong advocates for justice, which runs throughout the work not as theory, but as clearly articulated aim." - Paula Sampson, Director, Indigenous Studies Centre, Vancouver School of Theology, CanadaAbout the authors
