Considerably less has been written about Idealism as a viable framework for doing theology. While the most recent and significant works on Idealism, composed by the late John Foster (\u003ci\u003eCase for Idealism\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eA World for Us: The Case for Phenomenological Idealism\u003c\/i\u003e), have put this theory back on the philosophical map, no such attempt has been made to re-introduce Idealism to contemporary Christian theology. \u003ci\u003eIdealism and Christian Theology \u003c\/i\u003eis such a work, retrieving ideas and arguments from its most significant modern exponents (especially George Berkeley and Jonathan Edwards) in order to assess its value for present and future theological construction. As a piece of constructive philosophical-theology itself, this volume considers the explanatory power an Idealist ontology has for contemporary Christian theology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“[A] well-constructed collection of articles aimed at showing  the relevance and plausibility of theistic idealism … A book for the discerning reader, I recommend it to the student and to the scholar.” - \u003ci\u003ePhilosophy of the Cross\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“This anthology is of excellent analytical quality and strives for historical sensitivity.
