Partakers of the Divine Nature The History and Development of Deification in the Christian T... Book

This volume is a fairly good place to begin if one wants a good overview of the scholarly state of things on this topic from a fairly wide variety of viewpoints. Some reviews are, however, definitely better than others Personally, I found the first two sections, on the context of Theosis in Christianity, and in Classical and Late Antiquity, to be especially valuable. Christensen's essay on Wesley and Theosis is a revision of an earlier published essay, and was tweaked just slightly, but fruitfully. The rest of the essays are rather a mixed bag.
