What People are Saying About This

Richard A. McCormick

Fuchs is without doubt one of the Catholic Church's most distinguished moral theologians. His breadth of interest, depth of insight, and precision of analysis make him a theologian's theologian. Just as his work helped to prepare the way to Vatican II, his subsequent work in essays like these carries out the mandate of the Council to reshape moral theology by closer contact with the nourishing mysteries of the faith. These essays are vintage Fuchs—which means excellent.
