Never judge a book by its cover. This one shows what appears to be a McDonald's hamburger left in the rack the day be-fore yesterday. However, it turns out to be a human brain, and if you read this book you will exercise yours to considerable profit.
The volume comprises 14 essays, most of which first appeared in the Anglican theological journal Churchman. But if this puts anyone off, bear in mind that the author is about as un-Anglican as an Anglican gets. The chapters cover a wide range of subjects, including the Christian view of death, evangelicals and socio-political involvement in the 20th century, and the relationship between suffering and the sovereignty of God.
