‘The Ashgate Series “Explorations in Practical, Pastoral and Empirical Theology” . . . has quickly established itself as one of the most significant vehicles for the dissemination of cutting-edge academic research in the increasingly important field of Practical Theology. Amongst many notable studies already published in the series are Jeff Astley’s Ordinary theology and Ernst Nipkow’s study of moral and religious maturity, God, human nature and education for peace. Heywood, Percy and Randall [whose books are reviewed here] all make important contributions to the field of applied theology, contributions that can only enhance the already considerable status of the Series’ (Journal of Beliefs and Values).

For further details of this series, and to order books on line, see Routledge website.

Other titles are in preparation.
