Dietrich Bonhoeffer

`A book like this is a theological joy in its own right,' remarks the distinguished translator of this full-length study, and his view has been echoed by those who have been able to read the French original. The volume may well become the classic interpretation of Bonhoeffer's thought. Bonhoeffer's writing needs interpreting; after all, the circumstances in which it was produced leave it open to possible misunderstanding.
