"Given that David Tracy is, without question, one of the most important theologians in the contemporary period, one wonders why there are not more accessible introductions to this `theologian's theologian.' Stephen Okey's work wonderfully fills that urgent need! He covers all the major themes of Tracy's work thus far, pitching them perfectly for the reader to want to plunge into a more careful study of Tracy's work itself. This is no small feat and an incredible service for all the `publics' of theology. Kudos!"Dr. Julius-Kei Kato, King's College, Western University, London, Ontario, Canada
