Principles For A Catholic Morality by Timothy Oconnell

Completely revised and updated, this classic introduction to moral theology in the Roman Catholic tradition speak clearly to anyone interested in understanding what it means to live the Christian life. Beginning with a concise definition of the roles of revelation and interpretation in the formation of moral theology, O'Connell explores the concept of a moral person, the shape and dynamics of a moral world, and the implications not only for the individual Christian but for the community as a whole.

Timothy E. O'Connell, Ph.D., director of the Institue of Pastoral Studies at Loyola University, Chicago, is the author of What a Modern Catholic Believes About Suffering and Evil.
