The Inclusive Debate, a plea for realism
By Don Carson
IVP. 221 pages. £9.99
ISBN 0 85111 584 5

Once the angel at heaven's gate responded to a knock and asked: 'Who is there?' Came the reply: 'It is I'. Going off to find St. Peter the angel told him there was someone waiting to come in. 'Who is it?' said Peter. 'I do not know, but he is certainly a teacher'.

There is an Italian saying to which Carson introduces us: 'Traddutore, Traditore.' 'Translators, Traitors.' The very fact that we do not get the original pun in translation tells the story.
