Reexamining the basis, content, and manner of theology's contribution to contemporary society, this rigorous study argues that Christian theology is particularly significant to debates about public policy in a plural and secular age. Forrester contends that where there is no longer a consensus about goals, or a shared public philosophy, there is then a special responsibility left to theology to present its distinctive insights into the human condition.
