The Continuing Agony addresses the crucial and painful issues that continue to plague Christian-Jewish relations after Auschwitz. Despite these obstacles, the essays in this book profess hope for the future of a Jewish-Catholic dialogue.
This comment by Berger (head of the Holocaust center at Florida Atlantic University) should prompt readers to get the book: 'If Catholics and Jews are interested in working together to seek at least a partial tikkun olam (restoration or repair of the world insofar as this is possible after Auschwitz), the dialogue has to deepen.' Indeed, the dialogue has deepened because of this book's publication. -- Thomas A. Idinopulos, Miami University
The Continuing Agony will enlighten scholars and interested general readers alike. -- Neal Pease, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee * The Catholic Historical Review *
An indispensable guide to the state of Catholic-Jewish relations and a useful manual to measure the course of Pope Benedict XVI's future relationship with the Jewish people. -- Jack Fischel, Millersville University
