This is as robust a defence of the claim of religious faith to be heard in the public square as one could wish. The stance is orthodox Chrisitan; the voice is the voice of sanity and calm reason. The book is an antidote to the unthinking political correctness with which we are regaled day by day government ministers and sections of the media. It is truly a tract for our times... [a] courteous but devastating polemic Paul Avis, Ecclesiastical Law Journal An important book on a vital issue Peter Costello The Irish Catholic d This book is extremely timely, and it will help policy-makers, students and anyone interested in the role of religion in public life to reach a much clearer understanding of the issues involved...Religion in Public Life is an invaluable resource in helping us to think through this new situation with attention to detail but without losing sight of the subject as a whole. Anthony J. Carroll sj, The Way a fertile, rich and timely book. Gavin D'Costa, IJPT Would that more teachers and commentators had the clarity of thought and expression of Professor Trigg.
