In the last forty years Roman Catholic moral theology has been experiencing revolutionary tension and change. In this unique and thoroughly documented study a distinguished Jesuit moral theologian examines the events, personalities, and conflicts which have contributed, from New Testament times to the present, to the Roman Catholic moral tradition and its contemporary crisis, and interprets the fundamental changes taking place in the subject today.
