Although the doctrine of the Trinity is a core Christian belief it remains contested in terms of how it is conceptualised and expressed. This essential Guide for the Perplexed expounds different conceptual models and the technical language used to express these models. It examines attempts to ‘apply’ the doctrine in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, e.g. in relation to ecumenical dialogue, with its main approach focusing on hermeneutics and ontology of relationality. Providing a complete overview, as well as new insights into the area, Trinity: A Guide for the Perplexed is an essential read for students of Christian Theology.

The book deals with that most profound mystery of the Christian faith, that God is three but also one and indivisible. It is a thoroughly researched study, essentially an examination and interpretation of the interpreters of the mystery throughout the centuries of theological discussion. Paul Collins also considers the response to the doctrine of the Trinity within the various Christian churches and even asks the question – is the Trinity relevant? This book is not an introduction to an understanding of the mystery: it is essentially for scholars. As the author says, it “assumes a basic working knowledge of the doctrine and scholarly discourse concerning it.” Those with such a basic knowledge will find the book of great value.
