Lonergan studied human understanding. He also examined Catholic teaching up to and following the Vatican II Council. The Council confirmed the Church's respect for a person's conscience in the midst of modern tensions. Christians today must address the problems caused by a militant Islam as well as the arguments of secularists. The book analyzes today's many identity crises. It argues that Lonergan's method can help people build bridges between hearts and minds. -- William Weiskopf, Ph.D, Catholic Lay Theologian
