Bradley Green's PhD dissertation on Gunton's reading of Augustine is now available from Pickwick Publications. From the back cover it ultimately ends up being critical of Gunton and argues that he could have found some of the resources necessary for his own theology within Augustine.
Gunton's criticisms of Augustine are largely emerging to be found wanting - I've seen very little to defend Gunton - and it would have been interesting to see if Gunton himself would have soften his criticisms, I think probably not.
Green's book remains one of the few extensive studies of Gunton's theology currently available.
