Schreiner's New Testament Theology Now Available in UK

A few days ago I received the copy of Schreiner's New Testament Theology (Baker Academic, 2008, USA) that I had purchased from the Westminster Bookstore. I hope to be able to start reading in it soon. Well, this morning, while browsing the Inter-Varsity Press (UK) site, I learned that they have published the UK edition and that it is now available for purchase (released 18/07/2008). Here's what their edition looks like, along with the table of contents:

New Testament Theology

In this comprehensive survey of key themes and emphases, Thomas Schreiner unfolds the riches of New Testament theology through the lens of salvation history, showing how fruitful the 'promise - fulfillment', 'already - not yet' paradigm is for understanding the New Testament.
