Arguably the most powerful of Moltmann's books. The Crucified God is a seminal work on the crucifixion and its significance. The book takes death despair and dreadfulness the dark side of the human condition with total seriousness and relates these to a liberating hope of redemption through divine agony and suffering. Influential for many years, especially with political and liberation theologians, but also much more widely, the book represents a concentrated blast of hard-edged doctrinal reflection and - now reissued with a Preface by the author's leading British interpretor - will continue to inspire upcoming generations who take seriously the life-changing notion that 'God was in Christ.'

"'Should be on the shelf of anyone who thinks the theological enterprise is worthwhile.' New Blackfriars 'Has the supreme merit of dealing with problems which exist not only in the seminar room or in the cathodral close but also in the rest of the world.' Theology 'This is the most important book on the crucifixion to have appeared for a decade.' Sunday Times 'This is theology as it should be written, with hard intellectual and spiritual struggle, and constant dialogue with the Bible, the tradition and modern thought.'
