Towards A New Christian Political Realism
Towards A New Christian Political Realism presents a new theoretical approach to understanding the role of religion in international relations, considering the strengths of Christian realism, classical realism, and neorealism, as well as the literature about the relevance of religion for IR. The book discusses the resurgence of religion and how it has become ‘public’ in the world since around the 1960s. It extensively describes the role religion plays in Hans Morgenthau’s classical realism and Kenneth Waltz’s neorealism and how both thinkers are indebted to an Augustinian way of thinking that has influenced political realism through Reinhold Niebuhr’s Christian realism.

Moral Discernment in the Christian Life
James M. Gustafson has been a leading and formative figure in the field of Christian ethics over the past fifty years. His many contributions to theological ethics have helped to define and shape ethical thinking by Christians who reflect on great moral issues. Gustafson's work must be dealt with by all students in this discipline, and his perceptive insights have given clarity and guidance to the process of moral discernment. The essays collected here are ones that have had a significant impact on discussions and debates over recent decades. The Library of Theological Ethics series focuses on what it means to think theologically and ethically. It presents a selection of important and otherwise unavailable texts in easily accessible form. Volumes in this series will enable sustained dialogue with predecessors though reflection on classic works in the field.

T&T Clark Handbook of Christian Prayer
"The T&T Clark Handbook to Christian Prayer is a theological companion to the practice of prayer and a resource for thinking theologically about prayer. The thirty-seven essays are organised into four parts. The first part reaches back to the biblical foundations of prayer. Each of the chapters in the second part breathes new life into classical doctrinal loci by investigating the doctrines of God, creation, Christology, pneumatology, providence, eschatology, and the Christian life from the perspective of prayer. The chapters in the third part explore the writings of some of the great theorisers of prayer in the Christian tradition. The final part gathers a set of creative and critical conversations on prayer from a variety of contemporary perspectives. Overall, this Handbook is seeking articulation of a theologically expansive approach to prayer - one that is deeply biblical, energetically doctrinal, historically rooted, and relevant to a whole host of critical questions and concerns facing the world"--

A convenient and accessible guide to Levinas, first published in 2002, which emphasises the interdisciplinary significance of his work.
Face to Face with Animals
This is the first volume of primary and secondary source material dedicated solely to the animal question in Levinas. Drawing on previously unpublished material, including the recent discovery and digitization of the original French recording of an interview with Levinas that took place in 1986, it seeks to give fresh impetus to the debate surrounding the moral status of animals in Levinas's work. The book offers ten essays by leading scholars, along with a general introduction that places Levinas's philosophy in the context of the growing field of animal ethics. The aim of the volume is to encourage dialogue on how we can extend Levinas's ethics beyond its traditional human confines and to spur further research on the opportunities and challenges it raises.
