essays in honour of Allan Aubrey Boesak

Revised edition.

by , , , and

"Allan Boesak was one of the foremost leaders in the struggle against apartheid. His role in the church in South Africa, internationally and in the United Democratic Front, contributed significantly to the demise of apartheid. He championed the rights of the oppressed and became the representative voice of the poor and disadvantaged. Allan is a gifted preacher, teacher, theologian, writer and an orator blessed with poetic tendencies and a flourishing vocabulary. He has the natural ability to inspire, motivate and stimulate critical and analytical thinking and responses) where globalisation threatens to be a new form of colonisation. He has eloquently championed the cause of economic justice, justice for the earth, gender justice and the struggle against homophobia in the church."--Publisher's website.
