This incisive, open access book explores the continued power and relevance of a core Christian teaching: the doctrine of sin.

>At the same time, Torrance reveals how critical theory can work constructively with theology. By working in tandem, they allow creative exploration of questions such as the effect of sin on human reason, the nature of structural pathologies, and the experience of human shame. In and through these dialogues, Luther's doctrine of sin shows itself as a plausible, robust and psychologically astute doctrine for the present day.
