THE REALITY OF Jesus "The Reality of Jesus will convey to the student and serious general reader a sense wider christo- logical hori- zons character- istic of the post-con- ciliar outlook.. [The author] develops a readable and nuanced presentation of the main areas of the field: the historical Jesus, the meaning of the resurrection, the development of christological dogma. Highly recommended."

"This is a fascinating study of the mystery of Christ, of the his- torical Jesus and biblical research, of the mysteries of Incarna- tion and Resurrection... Eventually we come to 'implications of the Christ-event,' and then, what is so rarely achieved, a suc- cinct and readable survey of the patristic debates.

-The Tablet

"A limpid and lucid style, deep scholarship most lightly worn in a clear and simple presentation make this book something really worth getting and reading often." -The Furrow

"A splendid book! It can be recommended to the older gener ation of Christians who may have heard vague and disquieting talk of 'new Christology' and of strange new answers to familia questions. This book will explain to them what the new theology has been up to and... will help them acquire a deeper under standing of the mystery of the incarnation. It will do the same for younger Christians".
