- "This book explores the relationship of women and men in the church today, and how this affects the search for church unity and for renewal. It includes expert assessments of the WCC's 'Community of Women and Men in the Church' Study, feminist, perspectives on biblical texts of liberation, vivid reports from Christian communities in contexts as diverse as India and Berkeley, California, and incisive accounts of the Orthodox perspective on issues of women and men. Issues of the community of women and men are one focus of Faith and Order's study programme on `The Unity of the Church and Renewal of Human Community'. The book gathers the papers and report from its second (Prague) consultation, with theological reflections on the issues and process of the meeting and an introductory essay placing the meeting in ecumenical perspective". -- back cover.

Chapters 2, 3 and 4 address issues and problems of the historical-critical interpretation of the Bible raised by pastoral theology, liberation theology and moral theology or ethics. Chapters 5 and 6 examine methodological and hermeneutical discussions in historical and literary critical scholarship of the Bible in order to illustrate that a feminist critical hermeneutics of liberation can contribute to the transformation of the discipline". -- Intro., p. xx.

- "This issue of 'Concilium' inaugurates a new section on feminist theology. In recent years an increasing number of articles has appeared in 'Concilium' raising the 'woman problem' in the Church or addressing a chosen theological theme or issue from a feminist perspective. The establishment of this new section not only places feminist theology on the same level with other theological disciplines but also ensures the articulation, analysis and restatement of a given theological subject from a feminist perspective (p. ix). .... The articles in this issue explore theologically women's experience of being silenced, excluded, trivialised, and marginalised in the Church because we are women. Therefore, they are all written by women (p. xi)." -- Editorial.
