Dogmatics in nuce
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book is an exposition and condensation of the nearly 10,000 pages of Barth's Church Dogmatics, of which Bromiley was one of the major translators. Bromiley's book is a fine resource not only for the obvious reason that it provides swift access to theology of the massive tomes of Barth's Dogmatics, but also for Bromiley's insightful and lucid explications and summaries. Being structured after the Dogmatics, it is not only a typical introduction, but it gives an idea of the Dogmatics in nuce. It is a highly recommended stepping stone to Barth's magisterial work.
