What is the nature of world Anglicanism in a postcolonial, global
age? This book provides the key to understanding both the character
of this Christian tradition and the essential nature of current
disputes. It describes the foundations of the tradition and
outlines its central beliefs and practices, focusing on mission,
liturgy, engagement with others, and power, knowledge and authority
in the church. It includes chapters on women's ordination and on
homosexuality in the public life of the church, and the final
chapter looks to the challenges of the future.
