Rezensionen

'This is an important and timely collection of essays on the related topics of personal identity and the resurrection of the body that will be an important resource for students of metaphysics and philosophy of religion. The essays take the discussion forward in constructive and sometimes surprising ways, making it a valuable addition to the literature in this field. Highly recommended.' Oliver Crisp, University of Bristol, UK '... provide[s] a valuable resource for anyone trying to work out for themselves a coherent view of the general resurrection, and they also show that the application of philosophical method to theological questions is very much alive and kicking.' Journal of Theological Studies '... the volume covers an exceedingly broad range of areas, theses, and topics.' Theologische Revue 'For scholars interested in some current philosophical speculation on the metaphysical possibility of resurrection, this volume will be a very helpful and important resource. It will also be a significant point of reference for those attempting to rethink anthropology, particularly for those interested in its relation to theology. ... an important collection of notable voices that enable the conversation to move forward.' The Thomist
