Equality and the Family - A Fundamental, Practical Theology of Children, Mothers, and Fathers in Modern Societies
This work is a collection of essays which reveal how practical theology can act as a practical research programme. It uses the example of the family to illustrate how this works and argues that equality in the family can be based on Christian ideas. It promotes the church's ideal model of the mother-father partnership to be balanced with an understanding and acceptance of the pluralism of family forms as a part of modern life.
