Colin Gunton (died in 2003) was a prolific and significant British theologian. This new book, The Theology of Colin Gunton (T&T Clark, 2010) is a collection of essays exploring his thought from various angles. I was honored to be included in this collection. I wrote an essay which was not from my dissertation (on Gunton), but was a development of some things I began to get at right at the end of my dissertation. My chapter, "Colin Gunton and the Theological Origin of Modernity," summarizes and criticizes Gunton's understanding of the nature of modernity. Thanks to the editor, Lincoln Harvey, for including me in this collection and for doing a great job editing.
