Making Good is a wise and wide ranging study of human creativity, a rich and provocative topic with a complex history. With great skill and sensitivity Trevor Hart creatively draws modern philosophy, aesthetic theory, and Christian theology into a sustained dialogue, as he explores our call to active participation in the Trinitarian drama of creation and redemption." - Roger Lundin, Arthur F. Holmes Professor of Faith and Learning, Wheaton College"Is creation something that only God the Creator does? Do artists just imitate creation, or compete with God as creators, or participate in God’s continuing creative work? These are the questions at the heart of Trevor Hart’s rich investigation, in which he draws on the Bible, the history of art, the history of ideas, philosophy, creativity studies and other resources to build a theological account of creativity in the arts. Making Good throws light on the doctrine of creation at the same time as it interrogates the nature of human creativity. It is likely to prove a landmark study in its field." - Richard Bauckham, Emeritus Professor, University of St Andrews"Trevor Hart has distinguished himself over many years as an eminently sane, theologically acute, and immensely stimulating thinker. This volume is the result of many years of labour, and any with even a passing interest in artistic making will benefit enormously from the wisdom contained in its pages." - Jeremy Begbie, Duke University"Hart's book is replete with rich biblical, cultural, historical, and theological analysis and commentary that repay the reader's investment." - Stephen Jenks, Books at a Glance"This book is clearly a labour of love and rich with insights." - Robin Gill, Theology"This is the kind of book that stays with you, draws you back for re-reading, and deepens the resonances of daily life." - Imogen Adkins, Anglican Theological Review
