Media Reviews

Lash's introduction to this recent reissue of Newman's Grammar makes that work accessible to contemporary students of philosophy and theology alike. If one wishes a fresh perspective on the shape of the 'critical questions' facing philosophical theology, as well as an object lesson in the norms implicit in ordinary discourse properly employed, that person would be well advised to take up this century-old volume. --Theological Studies
