Description: From the publisher: "Khaled Anatolios presents a comprehensive study of St. Athanasius, one of the most influential figures in the development of Christian doctrine, through a comprehensive interpretation of his theological vision. He analyzes the coherence of Athanasius' theology by relating the various aspects of his doctrine--God, creation, theological anthropology, Christology and redemption and the life of grace--to a pervasive emphasis on the radical distinction, and simultaneous relation, between God and world."

From the cover: "Throughout the book, Anatolios reads closely and carefully, and it is a pleasure to participate in his insights...[T]his fascinating and very readable book ought to be required reading for anyone wishing to gain insight into the Great Athanasius and his time...." –Peter Bouteneff St. Vladimir 's Theological Quarterly
