What is The ressurrection of Jesus Christ about?

In a climate in which existentialist and psychological interpretations of the resurrection are fashionable, it is all too easy for this central Christian belief to be eased out of the realm of historical reality. Many Christians still rightly ask the fundamental question: "What actually happened?" This book faces this question squarely by the following means: 1) It offers a full and critical survey of recent scholarship on the resurrection, including a convincing critique of the views of such theologians as Bultmann, Marxsen, Lampe and Geering. 2) It examines the resurrection under three distinct headings: history, faith and theology. The synthesis which the author provides avoids the extremes of skepticism and unwarranted conservatism. He examines the formation of the Easter faith and argues that the New Testament evidence can and should be correlated with man's experience of the risen Christ today
