| Book synopsis |
|
| This encyclopedia is a comprehensive survey and analysis of the main philosophical, scientific (or empirical), and theological studies of mission in the 19th and 20th centuries. It deals with (1) the names, (2) the concepts, (3) the methods, and (4) the branches of missiology. Therefore, it concludes with four chapters after an introductory chapter. Since most branches of missiology only came into existence in the 19th century, most analyses, descriptions, and bibliographies do not go back beyond 1800. Both the philosophy of mission and the science of mission are dealt with in the first volume. The theology of mission, especially the missionary theology, is discussed in this second and final volume. |

«Extensive bibliographies, which accompany each sub-topic, make this volume an extremely valuable tool for missiological researchers.» (James A. Scherer, Missiology)
«The overall impression one receives from even a cursory glance through the pages of this second part to a two volume handbook on the study of mission is its breathtaking comprehensiveness. ...The book is a mine of information.» (J. Andrew Kirk, Mission Studies)
«...ein Werk...dem mein ganzer Respekt gilt. Es darf in keiner Bibliothek fehlen, mit deren Hilfe man sich darüber fundiert informieren will, was die Sache der Mission in der Vergangenheit war und heute ist.» (Theo Sundermeier, Kerk en theologie)
