David Burrell is the Theodore Hesburgh C.S.C. Professor emeritus in Philosophy and Theology at the University of Notre Dame.
"Philosophical theology is not an easy subject, but in this book
Burrell manages to make it as accessible as it will ever be. He
himself controls the literature and language of all three
traditions—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—and he appends an index
of key Arabic terms used." —Journal of Ecumenical Studies
"In his philosophically acute analyses, Burrell moves smoothly from
tradition to tradition ... in order to show how in all three
traditions one can discuss creation and freedom and why this
discussion will be mutually enlightening and corrective." —The
Journal of Religion
"Among the most gratifying of Burrell's contributions here is his
continuing insistence that we in our century take the relevant
Jewish and Islamic sources and themes at least as seriously as
Aquinas did in his." —Theological Studies
