| Summary: | The topic of the atonement continues to be an area within theological reflection that inspires dialogue and controversy, no doubt in part because of the ramifications this theme has on the way one understands God's relationship to violence. Given the preponderance of work on the matter, a second edition to Weaver's 2001 text is worthwhile. This ‘greatly revised and expanded’ edition lives up to the billing, for it contains one hundred more pages of material than its predecessor. In the author's eyes, this second edition allows for corrections to the first edition, the addition of new material, and an updating of authors and their works as these have developed over the course of the last decade. |
