This new addition to T&T Clark/Bloomsbury's growing number of books on the late, great, Dominican theologian Edward Schillebeeckx is very welcome indeed.

Theology

Purposefully organized and lucidly introduced, this collection of key essays by Edward Schillebeeckx is an invaluable theological cartography for a new generation of scholars navigating through current "contrast experiences" in the World Church. Certainly, the volume is essential reading for courses on Schillebeeckx and his enduring relevance.

The new Schillebeeckx Reader is “the frosting on the cake!” Essential selections from the works of a path-breaking 20thc. theological mind, with just the right cross-references, and smart introductions from a new generation of scholars-widen the scope of Schillebeeckx's relevance for the 21st century-and beyond! A truly monumental work!

The vast scope of Edward Schillebeeckx's monumental opus is thoughtfully and carefully represented in this Reader. What a gift to Schillebeeckx scholars, as well as anyone interested in post-Vatican II Catholic theology!

This volume provides a marvelous resource for all who seek to explore the groundbreaking contributions of Edward Schillebeeckx to Catholic and ecumenical theology in the twentieth century-- and beyond. Drawn from the entire corpus of Schillebeeckx's writings, this selection of texts is an essential work for scholars and libraries. At the same time, it provides the most recent one-volume introduction to the extensive writings of a theologian who once described his goal as a theologian as that of presenting the heart of the gospel in a credible way to others-even believers in crisis. Highly recommended!
