Certainly the greatest American theologian of the 20th Century, Reinhold Niebuhr was a provocateur in theology and ethics. This new book, Reinhold Niebuhr Revistied: Engagements with an American Original, presents essays by an unexpected group of conservatives and liberals, Protestants and Catholics, admirers and detractors. Regardless of perspective however, each author engages Niebuhr's theology critically and insightfully, discussing topics as diverse as his friendship, his legacy, politics, cultural ethics, and historical understanding.
