In this important book, D. A. Carson gives a far-ranging analysis of pluralism in its various forms, e.g. inter-faith pluralism. He mounts a firm defence of historic Christianity over a broad front, engaging with modern trends in a forthright, sensitive and intelligent way. Finally he confronts the pluralism which has seeped into the evangelical community.
To these tasks he brings the formidable exegetical gifts already displayed in a clutch of widely acclaimed titles, the front-line experience of one frequently involved in student evangelism, and a deep concern for the true communication of the gospel in the modern world that is reminiscent of Francis Schaeffer.
Carson delivers both a thoughtful critique of pluralism, based on wide reading and interaction, and a positive programme for the contemporary church showing how it can confront the challenge of post-modernism.
