Paul Avis describes and interprets the Anglican understanding of the Christain Church from the Reformation to the present day. He presents the development of Anglican identity and ecclesiology in its historical context, focusing particularly on Anglican engagement with the Roman Catholic and Protestant traditions. This book also provides substantial accounts of the major Anglican theologians, from Richard Hooker to modern writers. In this new edition, Avis includes discussions of the influence of evangelical theology and reflects on the integrity of Anglicanism for the future.
