Synopsis

The Phenomenon of Man, The Divine Milieu and The Hymn of the Universe, led to a huge interest in his thinking that affected and moved theologians and ordinary Catholics for a generation in the middle of the last century. Many of his ideas on the nature of evolution and the problems of original sin continue to influence contemporary Christian theology. While his influence and popularity may have waned somewhat in recent years, this timely new biography from a fellow Jesuit theologian and philosopher brings fresh light to the life, work, achievements and legacy of a theologian and scientist whose contribution to our understanding and insights into the human condition continues to inform, excite and encourage.
