N. T. Wright is Research Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity at the University of St Andrews.

In the last two decades N. T. Wright has produced a succession of connected volumes that explore the nature and origins of Christianity. Wright has consistently argued that Christianity, while indebted to Second Temple Judaism, represents a significant development. With major books on method and background, Jesus, and the resurrection already in print, in Paul and the Faithfulness of God, Wright added a comprehensive study of the Apostle to the Gentiles.  
  
The Paul Debate is essential reading for those who both agree and disagree with Wright, and for all who want to understand the compelling voice of one of the most read and productive Pauline scholars in the past decades.

For all who have read Paul &amp; the Faithfulness of God, or have simply wondered what all the fuss is about, this book takes you straight to the storm-centres of debate among the world's most distinguished Pauline scholars, as they assess the impact and significance of this landmark book.

N.T. Wright's magnum opus, Paul and the Faithfulness of God, now has a little brother in The Paul Debate... Among the abundance of volumes that Wright has written, this one is perhaps the most readable and the most distilled summation of Wright's account of the Apostle Paul. Vintage Wright!; Michael F.
