Circle Thinking - African Women Theologians in Dialogue with the West

This is a ground-breaking study of the formation of a new voice in theology emerging from African women theologians working against the grain of the African mission churches' settled interpretation of women's role. The theological themes and societall vision of Protestant and Catholic women theologians is opened up for a western readership in a radical and accessible way. A fund of new information and insight from African theologians only just emerging onto the Western academic horizon.
