Every year, the amount published in the area of theology and religious studies increases and diversifies. RRT offers an accessible, informed and up-to-date guide to contemporary developments and publishing in religion and theology, providing a forum in which the latest publications are evaluated and discussed.
RRT aims to provide clearly written, constructive and prompt reviews of the vast range of publications in theology and religious studies, or that are of relevance to those interested in these fields (for example, in anthropology, cultural studies, history, literature or philosophy).

'It is very good news that Blackwells are relaunching RRT under Dr Isabel Wollaston's editorship. In its last five years, RRT has given rapid, intelligent responses to a very large number of new books, and it has constantly shown how vibrant and varied the field is. It has become a journal of first resort for learning what is currently being published. It now promises, in the hands of one of the leading publishers of journals, to build on its last five years and take its place, along side longer established journals, as essential reading in order to keep up with both literature and comment in theology and religious studies.'
Professor David Ford, University of Cambridge, UK
'I am very happy to commend RRT to all those who are interested in contemporary theology. It provides introduction to trends in theology and religious studies by its accessible and constructive reviews of the latest publications.'
Professor Chris Rowland, University of Oxford, UK
'RRT offers an accessible point of entry into the lively world of contemporary British theology and religious studies. At the same time, the journal is broadly international and ecumenial, combining book reviews and commentary from a wide variety of authors. Americans will find RRT a refreshing change of pace from the atmosphere of AAR/SBL.'
Garrett Green, Connecticut College, New London, Connecticut, USA
