". . . a very fine work on the intersection of Marxist and Christian teaching. . . . MacIntyre provides a very useful summary of Marx's philosophical forebears, and his development from them. His summary of Marx's teaching on history and the changes from his earlier to his later writing is quite fair, and a good introduction to the thought of Marx. . . . It really does bring together Marxism and Christianity in such a way that they may both contribute to and criticize each other." —Catholic Library World"...a discerning, solid book...a significant contribution to both the emerging Marxist-Christian dialogue and the task of building the future that awaits us all." —The New Republic
