Colin Brown attempts to get inside Barth's mind: to see the main issues
as he sees them, to try to bring into critical focus Barth's approach to
the Christian message and to find out what can be learned from it. The
Book is divided into four main sections. The first traces the course of
Barth's life, outlines briefly his main writings, and sees how and why
Barth has come to believe what he believes and think in the way he does.
The second deals with the question of revelation, the third with his
natural theology, the fourth with Barth's Christological approach to
doctrine.
