"A superb survey of atonement theology"
This introduction traces the origins, development, and divergent streams of atonement theology throughout the Christian tradition and proposes key criteria by which we can assess their value.

"Witt and Scandrett are wise, charitable, brilliant, and passionate guides to the scriptural, theological, and historical questions that compose atonement theology. This approachable introduction will help everyone who wants a deeper understanding of what we mean when we confess that Christ lived, died, rose again, and ascended into heaven 'for us and for our salvation.'"
--Tish Harrison Warren, Anglican priest and author of Liturgy of the Ordinary and Prayer in the Night

"Thoughtful Christians looking for guidance on the doctrine of the atonement are flooded with almost too much information. Mapping Atonement brings wonderful clarity to the field. I look forward to using this book in my own teaching."
--Joseph Mangina, Wycliffe College, University of Toronto

"A major theological accomplishment. With attention to detail and generosity of interpretation, Witt and Scandrett faithfully map the doctrine of atonement. Rightly arguing that Christ's mission doesn't just illustrate but in fact constitutes atonement, Witt and Scandrett carefully chart their own theological path. This is the textbook on Christ's salvific work that many have been waiting for."
--Hans Boersma, Nashotah House Theological Seminary

"Mapping Atonement serves admirably both as a contribution to theology and as an introduction for students. Throughout, Witt and Scandrett understand the urgency of atonement's retrieval in our confused time. I highly recommend it to a wide audience."
--The Right Rev. George Sumner, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas

"With the lucidity and penetration characteristic of their teaching and writing, Witt and Scandrett have provided us a superb survey of atonement theology. The book covers a broad range of reflection on the atonement from the early church to the present, culminating in a careful commendation of T. F. Torrance's work. An essential introduction to the topic."
--Ephraim Radner, Wycliffe College, University of Toronto
