From Teacher to Manager

'Angie Pears offers a wide-ranging and marvelous survey of contextual theologies, particularly those that are committed to liberating thinking and acting. Her interpretations are accurate and generous. She asks the right questions and offers wise answers. Her work does what the best of syntheses do: it takes us to a new place.' Stephen Bevans, Catholic Theological Union, USA 'Written with crystal clarity Angie Pears has provided an accessible, detailed and critical study of contemporary contextual theologies. This book will be an essential text for both students and tutors seeking to understand both the appeal and limitations of contextual theologies. I hope too that contextual theologians will find pause for thought in some of the questions Pears raises about the nature of these theologies.'- Elizabeth Stuart, University of Winchester, UK
