""The debate about immigration has become the most toxic issue in politics. We have lacked a framework for considered discussion and populism has stepped in. In this well-researched and articulate hundred pages on national identity and independence, Nigel Biggar gives us just such a framework, demonstrating yet again the value of public theology. He makes an outstanding contribution."" --Iain R Torrance, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, Scotland ""Biggar writes with the full command of a capacious and prudential theological tradition, without ever being obscure, jargonistic, or dry. He is never afraid of strong judgements, but also never fails to give all his reasoning respectfully. The result is a forceful, well-paced text that commands attention and respect."" --Christopher J. Insole, Durham University, Durham, UK
