Book Synopsis


Trade Review

“Hauerwas has written a deeply challenging book that anyone seriously concerned with the authenticity of Christian ethics must read.” —Christian Century


“A concise and provocative discussion of the nature of ethics. . . . Hauerwas speaks of the importance of testing our skills against the excellences of others. Reading his book provides just such a test.” —Journal of Religion


“Exciting, provocative, and challenging . . . the value of this excellent book can hardly be overstated.” —Review of Books and Religion


“The most systematic presentation yet of Hauerwas’s decidedly practical agenda. It is an excellent place to begin reading.” —Religious Studies Review


“In this brief book Stanley Hauerwas, one of the most prolific writers in Christian ethics of his generation, sets forth his clearest, most readable, and most cogent statement to date of his own perspective on how ethics should be done in a Christian context.” —Interpretation: A Journal of Bible & Theology
