This book provides a theological history of the Christian doctrine
of creation and explores the implications of the doctrine for our
modern scientific age. Colin Gunton begins by looking at the
origins of the doctrine of creation in the Bible and relating the
biblical view to Greek cosmology. He then examines the history of
the doctrine, showing how theologians from Irenaeus to Barth have
spoken of creation. Gunton argues that early in the development of
the doctrine serious mistakes were made that have led to highly
problematic outcomes, such as the divorce of theology from science.
In the closing chapters Gunton focuses on related themes, such as
providence, eschatology, and the ethics of creation.
