A creative, informative introduction to public theology. Tracing the genesis of critical social theory in Germany's Frankfurt School of Social Research, Simpson explains the ideas of Jurgen Habermas---especially his thoughts on interpretation, praxis, communicative action, and civil society---to show how Christians can use critical theory to recover their prophetic vocation in today's postmodern culture. 178 pages, softcover from Fortress.
