Summary:

Stanley Hauerwas is one of the most important and robustly creative theologians of our time, and his work is well known and much admired. But Nicholas Healy - himself an admirer of Hauerwas's thought - believes that it has not yet been subjected to the kind of sustained critical analysis that is warranted by such a significant and influential Christian thinker. As someone interested in the systematic-theological implications of Hauerwas's work, Healy begins to fills that gap with this book. Book jacket.
