Description
Stephen Haynes's provocative study articulates the many motives and agendas that readers and scholars have brought to their study of Bonhoeffer, making it difficult to assess objectively the relationship of his political and religious commitments, the real meaning of his theology, and his words and actions on behalf of Jews. Reading Haynes's book helps us learn not only what Bonhoeffer has to teach us but also what it is we most desire to learn.

An erudite contribution to the debate. The author makes a commendable effort to engaged with Bonhoeffer's chameleon status as all-things-to-all-denominations. If there is a criticism he seems reticent at the end in drawing conclusions as to which way he really leaned.
