ROXBURGH, KENNETH B. E. Female Piety in Eighteenth-Century Scotland RUDOLPH, DAVID J. Jesus and the Food Laws: A Reassessment of Mark 7:19b NEW FROM PATERNOSTER Unapologetic Apologetics Editors: William A Dembski and Jay Wesley Richards As objective truth has come under suspicion in theological study during recent years, scholars and students have also begun to take less seriously the task of persuading others to believe. Apologetics has been neglected, misunderstood and misrepresented. Unwilling to accept this, editors William Dembski and Jay Wesley Richards have set about placing apologetics in its rightful place. The editors and contributors, all former students at Princeton Theological Seminary, confront some of the most discussed issues in contemporary theological studies, including pervasive contextualism, the question of error in Scripture, feminist challenges to our concept of God, the nature and coherence of the incarnation, the presumption of universalism, and incursions of science into theology. Taking up issues relating to Scripture, Christology, theology and science, these essays expose the tenets of naturalism and other philosophical systems that too often permeate theological studies without remark, let alone critique or debate. William Dembski is a writer, lecturer and holds degrees in theology and psychology, and he has done postdoctoral work at MIT, University of Chicago, Northwestern, Princeton, Cambridge and Notre Dame. William Jay Richards is currently a fellow and program director of the Discovery Institute’s Centre for the Renewal of Science and Culture, based in Seattle, Washington.

As the College reaches its seventieth anniversary, two former members of staff tell the story in the context of developments in church and society from the founder’s birth to the present. Witness to the Word is brought to life with pen portraits of the staff (administrative and domestic as well as academic) who have served it over the years, and some of the former students, who illustrate the extent to which it has fulfilled the founder’s vision. Eight pages of photographs also show something of the way in which the college has grown from small beginnings to its present size and status as a world-class institution. ‘Rudi Heinze and David Wheaton have produced a thorough, well-written history of Oak Hill, offering a valuable description of its life and ministry over the years.’ The Most Revd and Rt Hon Dr George Carey, Archbishop of Canterbury. Rudolph Heinze was College Dean and Vice Principal at Oak Hill College for nearly two decades. David Wheaton was the Principal of Oak Hill College for 15 years. He served as an Honorary Chaplain to Her Majesty The Queen from 1990-2000. ISBN: 1-84227-163-6 / 198x130 / p/b / 336pp / £14.99 Paternoster Press, PO Box 300, Carlisle, Cumbria CA3 0QS, UK
