Bonhoeffer

<B>First Things</B><BR /> "A revised edition of one of the most important works on Dietrich Bonhoeffer's early life and writings with a suggestive effort to reconstruct from his unfinished <I>Ethics</I> his justification for joining the resistance effort to kill Hitler. A necessary book for students of one of the most compelling theological and moral figures of the twentieth century."<BR /><BR /><B>Theological Book Review</B><BR /> "This is a thoroughly readable balanced and learned study of the ways in which the earlier Bonhoeffer is a key to his later work. . . Here is a careful clearly developed exposition of a truly great man's thinking in the face of immense human problems. Bonhoeffer has much to say to a world which still has problems with power and with rampant individualism; Green will help any serious student come to grips with the basic thinking which is often overlooked by writers on this seminal theologian."<BR /><BR /><B>Ecumenical Review</B><BR /> "A model of scholarly exposition. . . Green has established himself as the foremost Bonhoeffer scholar writing in English. . . Rarely has a single volume done so much to clear the air and to reorient scholarship along the right track. No future study of Bonhoeffer will be able to ignore Green's [book]."<BR /><BR /><B>Expository Times</B><BR /> "One of half a dozen truly important books on Bonhoeffer."<BR /><BR /><B>Journal of Theology for Southern Africa</B><BR /> "Fresh discoveries in the 'Bonhoeffer corpus' which throw light on the whole. . . Green's style makes his book a joy to read."<BR /><BR /><B>Newsletter of the International Bonhoeffer Society</B><BR /> "A model of scholarly exposition. . . Green has established himself as the foremost Bonhoeffer scholar writing in English. . . Rarely has a single volume done so much to clear the air and to reorient scholarship along the right track. No future study of Bonhoeffer will be able to ignore Green's [book]."<BR /><BR /><B>Publishers Weekly</B><BR /> "Eerdmans offers some heavy-duty theology in the revised edition of <I>Bonhoeffer: A Theology of Sociality</I> by Hartford Seminary professor Clifford Green. Green's 1975 text which focused on Bonhoeffer's early theology has been updated with the inclusion of some of the theologian's letters discovered in 1998 in the archives of Princeton Theological Seminary. Some of these letters which are presented in a valuable appendix address Bonhoeffer's work in the Resistance during World War II. The new edition also includes a chapter about the German theologian's foundational <I>Ethics</I>."<BR /><BR /><B>Theological Studies</B><BR /> "Brilliant book... All serious researchers into Bonhoeffer's theology must now somehow come to grips with Green's interpretation."
