This collection of essays, addresses, and one interview come from the years 1966?73 and cover a wide spectrum of interest, dealing with such general topics as 'The Absence of God in Modern Culture' and 'The Future of Christianity.'
Hugo Meynell offers a clear, straightforward overview and analysis of Bernard Lonergan's efforts to articulate and reassess Christian doctrines in light of modern science and philosophy.
