Abstract

Both carefully researched and lucidly written, Iain Taylor's Pannenberg on the Triune God makes a significant contribution to the scholarly literature on the theology of Wolfhart Pannenberg. Covering the doctrinal loci in the order in which they appear in Systematic Theology (ST), the work advances as a detailed exposition and evaluation of Pannenberg's mature trinitarian theology. Taylor contends for the doctrine of God as the organizing centre of ST. Helpful in this discussion is his refutation of assumptions of Hegelianism in Pannenberg's trinitarian thought. Taylor demonstrates throughout a consistently generous reading of Pannenberg's theology without hesitating to articulate careful critiques. While all readers of Pannenberg may not concur with those appraisals, his grasp of Pannenberg's dogmatics makes this volume highly valuable to those hoping to explore Pannenberg's trinitarian theology.
