A Good Look at Evil

Philosophy

“Abigail Rosenthal has given us the definitive — the defining — account of evil and, at the same time, of the good life that evil subverts. Evil is not banal, but quite the opposite. It targets its victim with precision and ruthlessness.”

Body Parts

Theology

“Human beings are embodied, hence finite, limited, vulnerable. Could those very limits be reflections of the divine? Voss Roberts’ use of Hindu as well as Christian ideas enables her to probe this question with unprecedented attention to the diversity of bodies and their aspects or ‘parts.’ Both Christian and more than Christian, this book teaches us to accept all of God’s world.”
