Robert Cummings Neville has been a consistent advocate for the necessity of global theology. Early in his career, he realized that the philosophical framework of the West alone was inadequate for a truly global theology. Since then, he has sought to develop theology creatively and responsibly within the world context. The original essays in the volume participate in and model the kind of dialogical, global theology embodied in Neville's work. Among the contributors are: Wesley Wildman, Amos Yong, Peter Heltzel, Kurt Richardson, Francis Clooney, Thomas Altizer, S. Mark Heim, John Cobb, Gabriel Fackre, and James Cone. Also included is a significant response by Neville in critical dialogue with his interlocutors.
