According to the synopsis, this invaluable resource "highlights the way the NT seeks to form the social identity of the members of the earliest Christ-movement. By drawing on the interpretive resources of social-scientific theories-especially those related to the formation of identity-interpreters generate new questions that open fruitful identity-related avenues into the text. It provides helpful introductions to each NT book that focus on various social dimensions of the text as well as a commentary structure that illuminates the text as a work of social influence."

This volume is a follow up on the earlier publication, 
T&T Clark Handbook to Social Identity in the New Testament, where I also contributed a chapter.
