Description: Due to the vigour of its re-engineering of the world by its technologies, western society has entered into a postnatural condition in which standard divisions between the natural and artificial are no longer convincing. This title develops an 'anthropology' that doesn't repeat Christianity's history of anthropocentrism but instead criticises it.
Review Quotes: 'Barr cuts a devastatingly clear path through selected controversies, saying something convincing, constructive and often original on each.' Expository Times; 'All who are concerned about the authority of the Bible should read these essays.' Church Times; 'More valuable even than the exploding of numerous half truths and errors achieved in this volume is the positive appreciation which it enables its readers to enjoy of the multiform character of the Bible and its place both in the Church and in the wider academic community.'
