John H. Berthrong is Associate Dean for Academic and Administrative Affairs and is Director, Institute for Dialogue Among Religious Traditions, Boston University School of Theology. He is the author of All Under Heaven: Transforming Paradigms in Confucian-Christian Dialogue, also published by SUNY Press.
This work examines the philosophies and theologies of three thinkers -- Chu Hsi, Alfred North Whitehead, and Robert C. Neville -- separated by time, space, and culture. In so doing John H. Berthrong provides a suggestive and successful comparison of creativity as a cross-cultural theme while introducing Neo-Confucianism as a sophisticated dialogue parmer with modern Western speculative philosophy and theology.
