In this volume, prominent scholars take the reader on a journey from New Testament and early church views of incarnation to contemporary understandings of Christology.</P><P>Deeply engaged with the classical tradition and the contemporary world, the book leads readers into critical explorations and debates of the concept of ';deep incarnation'the view that the divine incarnation in Jesus presupposes a radical embodiment that reaches into the roots of material and biological existence, as well as into the darker sides of creation. Such a wide-scope view of incarnation allows Christology to be relevant and meaningful when responding to the challenges of scientific cosmology and global religious pluralism: How does the revelation of the love of God in Christ relate to other experiences of communicative love and ethical sensitivity, to suffering and joy?; In what sense does God's Logos and Wisdom ';becoming flesh' include the world of ';all flesh'from grass to human persons; What are the connections between a Logos Christology and the informational aspects of the universethose exemplified in its deep mathematical structures as well as those emerging in biological evolution?; In brief, how does ';high' and ';low' meet and mingle in the story of incarnation?
