This study adds significantly to the Philosophy and Theology series. Zimmerman sets Levinas in his historical and contemporary context, critically evaluates his thought and draws out relevant theological themes.

Paul Ballard, UK, Theological Book Review

Nigel Zimmermann's Levinas and Theology is a book that everyone in the field of Levinas studies, and beyond, must read. Not only does it cover the fundamentals of this great thinker but also, and more pointedly, it points us to what the author calls "the disturbance of theology" and even "the return of God." This is a book that informs, questions, and provokes.

Kevin Hart, University of Virginia, USA

The work of Emmanuel Levinas has proved to be a strong challenge to Christian theological thinking. How should theology deal with the unsettling claim of God's total otherness? How might Levinas' reflections on ethics and religious transcendence help to shape a Christian theology of responsible subjectivity? Zimmermann's book invites readers to engage critically and self-critically with Levinas' thinking and offers them reliable and inspiring guidance during this journey.

Werner G Jeanrond, University of Oxford, UK

This study finds a balanced and nuanced voice somewhere between phenomenology and theology, as much as between Judaism and Christianity ... this book is a wonderful introduction and asset for theologians looking to contemplate the significance of Levinas' work.
