Jurisprudence and Theology

"The study is contextualized within a legal theological and intellectual framework and takes account of Ancient-Medieval thought. ... This leads the reader not only into a deep understanding of its subject matter, but also facilitates and encourages new links with modern jurisprudential thought. ... This is a challenging but refreshing book of great scholarship and significance." (Jessica Giles, Oxford Journal of Law and Religion, Vol. 5 (3), October, 2016)
