“This exciting collection of essays brings together work by a new generation of scholars to explore Augustine’s ideas about the moral life across a range of traditional and contemporary issues. The depth of knowledge, creativity, and independence of mind exhibited here augurs well for the future of scholarship on the redoubtable Bishop of Hippo. Highly recommended.”
