Systematic Theology

Preceding and following the Second Vatican Council, Roman Catholic theology experienced profound growth and development. This book seeks to explain the major elements of Roman Catholic theology as it has developed in the wake of Vatican II. It is intended to present postconciliar theology as faithful to the Roman Catholic tradition, influenced by historical and ecumenical studies, open to new philosophical currents, and sensitive to diverse historical and cultural situations. Suitable for teaching and study, each chapter integrates relevant church traditions and teaching along with the most significant contemporary proposals into the discussion.
