The two sections of the volume are designed to provide a comprehensive and critical introduction to feminist theology which is authoritative and up-to-date. Written by some of the main figures in feminist theology, as well as by younger scholars who are considering their inheritance, it offers fresh insights into the nature of feminist theological work. The book as a whole is intended to present a challenge for future scholarship, since it critically engages with the assumptions of feminist theology, and seeks to open ways for women after feminism to enter into the vocation of theology.", "author": "Susan Frank Parsons", "slug": "the-cambridge-companion-to-feminist-theology-197821-9781139816205", "thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/9781139816205.jpg", "default_thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/default_book_thumbnail.jpg", "product_type": "book", "product_id": "197821", "product_url": "/app/ecom/book/197821/the-cambridge-companion-to-feminist-theology-197821-9781139816205", "bisac_codes": [ "REL102000" ], "items_count": null, "identifiers": { "ISBN13": "9780521663274", "EISBN13": "9781139816205", "EISBN10": "1139816209" }, "drm": null, "cover_image": null, "default_cover_image": null, "book_type": null }, "relationships": { "lowest_offering": { "data": { "type": "offerings", "id": "00010033304317" } } } }, { "type": "Product", "id": "00010000197820", "attributes": { "name": "The Cambridge Companion to Cervantes", "subtitle": "", "description": "Don Quixote de la Mancha (1605) is one of the classic texts of Western literature and the foundation of European fiction.
