Unconventional Wisdom

"Unconventional Wisdom examines the values and spirituality of a variety of theologies expressed primarily in Europe and the USA but also drawing on liberation theologians from a number of cultures. Following theorists such as Foucault and Belenky, this book sets out a model for examining Western culture and where Christian traditions sit within it. It looks at how in heteropatriarchy various value systems become subjugated and recognizes that this process happens within both the self and society. As such it links the literature on cultural theory with those of theology and psychotherapy."--BOOK JACKET.
