"In this compelling and beautifully written book, Peter Walker undertakes a close and careful reading of Nicolas of Cusa''s On the Vision of God . Drawing insights from Cusa, Walker also makes a timely intervention in contemporary scholarship and debates in the area of theology of religions. Walker''s book will expand your vision and enhance your perspective. I highly recommend it!" -- Michael Mawson, University of Auckland "In this original, insightful, and elegantly written book, Peter Walker shows how Nicholas of Cusa''s 15th century Vision of God provides a fresh foundation and rationale for inter-religious dialogue and Christian theology of religions. Beyond current tensions between religious particularity and pluralism, the author unfolds a way of dialogue through attentive listening that opens participants to a deeper appreciation of the richness of divine truth. In this way, Cusa''s famous ''coincidence of opposites'' reveals both the gift and promise of religious diversity. In an age marked by the persistence and indeed growth of religions, Walker offers a ground-breaking work that resets the religious agenda for all seekers of truth." -- Bishop Stephen Pickard, Professor of Theology, Charles Sturt University, Australia "Peter Walker has made a highly original contribution to the Christian theology of religions and inter-religious dialogue.
By recovering the riches of Nicholas of Cusa''s approach to these perennial concerns, he has demonstrated the fruitfulness of listening to different viewpoints as the way to mutual understanding. In a polarized world, this clear and compelling book could not be more timely." -- William Storrar, University of Edinburgh an age marked by the persistence and indeed growth of religions, Walker offers a ground-breaking work that resets the religious agenda for all seekers of truth." -- Bishop Stephen Pickard, Professor of Theology, Charles Sturt University, Australia "Peter Walker has made a highly original contribution to the Christian theology of religions and inter-religious dialogue.
