The Struggle Over the Past contains essays on three facets of fundamentalist religion: its international character, its American Protestant form, and its appearance in Roman Catholicism. The papers range in methodological perspective from textual commentary, to history, to philosophical and theological argument. They are critical as well as descriptive. The papers that comprise this volume are written by leading scholars in the field: Islamicist John Esposito, R. Scott Appleby of the Fundamentalist Project, theologian Francis Fiorenza of Harvard Divinity School, William Dinges of Catholic University, Mary Jo Weaver of Indiana University, and Terrence Tilley of the Florida State University. Additional commentary by three noted scholars of American evangelical religionóSamuel Hill, Jr., E. Glenn Hinson, and Bernard Rammórounds out the examination of modern fundamentalism. Co-published with the College Theology Society.

William Shea is to be commended for the breadth of concerns encompassed. Given its broad scope, the book should serve well as a text for courses on fundamentalism in Catholic colleges and universities as well as a resource for general Catholic readership interested in formulating a response to fundamentalists. -- Mark A. Noll, Wheaton College Journal of the American Academy of Religion This is a superb collection of essays on 'fundamentalism,' a very slippery category that the editor and contributors have nevertheless illuminated with real skill. Would that all who takes their chances with this subject organized matters as well as the editor has organized this book and wrote as carefully as his authors have written. -- Mark A.
