Reviews
A Yankee Book Peddler US Core Title for 2013 Classified as 'Research Essential' by Baker & Taylor YBP Library Services 'In this groundbreaking book ZoA" Bennett brilliantly sketches the public theology of John Ruskin and skilfully uses it to illuminate practical theology and biblical hermeneutics. It is an outstanding contribution, not only to public theology but also to theology more generally. Calling on a wide array of interpretative skills, she illuminates a subject of pressing concern in a readable and compelling manner and demonstrates the value of historical study for the development of critical reflection. The study of John Ruskin, the Bible and theology will never look the same again.' Christopher Rowland, Queen's College, Oxford, UK '...a tantalising mix of autobiography, reflections from students and others, details of the doctorate course she leads on practical theology, John Ruskin and contemporary reflections on corporate finance and international conflict...'
