"God and the Gift is the first systematic account of the theology of giving, receiving, and the gift. It employs material from the contemporary debate in the humanities (Mauss, Godbout, Derrida, Marion) and ecumenical theology (Lumen Gentium, Catholic-Lutheran Joint Declaration, Anglican-Catholic Gift of Authority, John Milbank, Dorothea Wendebourg, Margaret O'Gara) but is basically an original attempt to build an ecumenical theology of forgiveness, thanksgiving and sacrifice, worship and the Eucharist proceeding from the theme of divine giving/self-giving."--BOOK JACKET.
