Analytic Theology and the Academic Study of Religion

Analytic theology can flourish in the secular academy and flourish as authentically Christian theology. <em>Analytic Theology and the Academic Study of Religion</em> explains analytic theology to other theologians and scholars of religion while simultaneously explaining those other fields to analytic<br>theologians. William Wood defends analytic theology from some common criticisms but also argues that analytic theologians have much to learn from other forms of inquiry. Analytic theology is a legitimate form of theology and a legitimate form of academic inquiry and it can be a valuable<br>conversation partner within the wider religious studies academy. <em>Analytic Theology and the Academic Study of Religion</em> articulates an attractive vision of analytic theology fosters a more fruitful inter-disciplinary conversation and enables scholars across the religious studies academy to<br>understand one another better.<br>
