Lincoln D. (peregrino) reviewed on 10/10/2009

Helpful Score: 3

Albert Nolan, a South African priest, writes this book with a strong slant to liberation theology. I liked the thematic focus of each chapter, which makes it very easy to read and follow. This is a good supplemental text in the field of Christology. The Christology professor I had in seminary recommended this book, even though I would say that his theological viewpoint is certainly not in the realm of liberation theology. This professor's recommendation attests to the broad appeal of Nolan's written and the contribution this makes to the field of Christology. Having been a missionary in South America, I can certainly relate to Nolan's observation and point of view. I recently set this book to a young man in prison who I am guiding through a self-study of Catholic theology. Other books I would highly recommend in Christology include the classic Jesus the Christ by Cardinal Walter Kasper.
