Writing Theology Well 2nd Edition

Zusatztext What a wise book! What a pleasant book! What a helpful book! The book reflects Yaghjian's special background, literature as it is well and interestingly written, graced with a conversation with leading figures in the field. There is in this book so much practical wisdom concerning the craft of writing. For a beginner, an absolutely necessary guide; for those who have been writing for years, a welcome and informative reminder of what makes theological writing readable and pointed. This should be required reading for graduate students (and their teachers). Informationen zum Autor Lucretia B.
