This is an introduction to the three great thinkers of the Russian school of modern Orthodox theology. It includes biographical sketches of the three and examines the creative ideas they devised or adapted, including the "humanity of God", sophiology, panhumanity, free theocracy, church-and-world dogmatics and prophetic ecumenism.
