Worth Noting
Bonds of Imperfection: Christian Politics, Past and Present, by Oliver and Joan O'Donovan, reviewed in the Church Times. 'The book's central theme is that modern political philosophy from Locke and the Enlightenment onwards is root-and-branch mistaken in seeing the fundamental issue as securing the pursuit of freedom or rights rather than a primary recognition that all political structures must stand under divine judgement.'

Humane Christianity, a new book by Alan Bartlett, is reviewed this week in the Church Times by Ian Bradley. 'The most interesting part of this book, for me, is Bartlett's unease about the rule of St Benedict, which he finds to be over-committed to perfectionism, and crushing to the human spirit.'

The Sacred Neuron: Extraordinary New Discoveries Linking Science and Religion, by John W. Bowker, is reviewed in The Tablet this week by Fraser Watts. 'The core question with which he deals is how to defend rationality and avoid a complete collapse into relativism, in a culture in which simplistic appeals to incontrovertible objectivity are no longer tenable. His response to that problem is highly original in that it draws on recent research in cognitive neuroscience.'
