Children Of God In The World

O’Callaghan has written much more than a textbook, since he is after nothing less than an integrated view of the whole of human existence. His book is replete with analysis of Scripture and the insights of the great-est philosophers and theologians, ancient and modern; and he is at home with the most recent literature in English, Italian, Spanish, German, and French. But readers should rejoice that what O’Callaghan here offers us is not less than a textbook. Indeed, this is a textbook in the finest tradition of the genre, profoundly instructive for teachers and students alike. At the heart of this book stands the grace by which Christ transforms human nature and history. This book belongs in every classroom and on every desk where the truth about human existence is sincerely sought by the light of reason elevated by faith.
