Culturally sensitive and constructively critical, Robert Cathey skillfully guides his reader through the last fifty years of reflection on what is perhaps the fundamental epistemological and ontological question in philosophic theology: the relation -- whether alternative or dialectically interactive -- between realism and imagination Geoffrey Wainwright, Cushman Professor of Systematic Theology, Duke University. Cathey leads his readers on a complex journey from post-liberal theology to realist and non-realist philosophies to the work of Willem Drees and Don Cupitt. On the work I know best (my own!) he is a careful reader and a fair critic. William C. Placher, Distinguished Professor in the Humanities, Wabash College, USA. Robert Cathey's book significantly advances our understanding of the post-liberal project and its place among competing contemporary theological perspectives. He offers incisive critique of the work of key thinkers on the theological landscape; his constructive proposal has great potential for moving beyond the present impasse between realism and non-realism. Anna Case-Winters, Professor of Theology, McCormick Theological Seminary, Chicago In thoughtful dialogue with the best minds on the subject, Cathey has written a penetrating analysis of the vexed question of what God means in our contemporary world. Regina Schwartz, Professor of English, Northwestern University 'Recommended.' Choice '... [this] book provides a provocative survey of some of the debates initiated by post-liberalism...'
