Ross Thompson has served for 20 years as an Anglican priest and lectured in theology and spirituality. He is the author of several well-acclaimed books on Christian spirituality.
Thompson, an Anglican priest, poses profound, liberating and troubling questions to anyone involved in either Buddhism or Christianity. And he poses the further question: how do we, in integrity, belong to both? (Gavin D'Costa, Professor of Catholic Theology, University of Bristol) On topics ranging from the nature of the self to the nature of the universe, Thompson brings Buddhism and Christianity into a conversation that both prods and enlightens. For Christians, the end result is to be a Christian in a Buddhist way. For many Christians, I suspect, it will be a more satisfying way. I look forward to using this book with my students. (Paul Knitter, Paul Tillich Professor of Theology, World Religions, and Culture, Union Theological Seminary) This book makes a valuable contribution to the emerging debate; it will appeal to scholars and non-scholars alike. (Dr. Rose Drew, Acting Director of the Centre for Inter-Faith Studies, University of Glasgow)
