Thompson provides a survey of modern thought on the doctrine of the Trinity, which has recently enjoyed a revival of interest. He examines the work of important theologians and their views on the relationship of the trinitarian doctrine to Scripture, the Church, philosophy, politics, and society.
The Dr Thompson book shows an independence of judgment which is enabled by, but not slavishly tied to, the theology of Barth. The irenical tone is the fruit of the author's steadfastly calm bearing over the years in a land much in need of the quality.
