This is a well-structured anthology of essays that bear effectively on the challenges and limits of pluralism, as well as the inevitable tensions of the church's engagement with such social settings. The Church in Pluralist Society is a useful resource for the ways in which Catholic intellectuals grapple with the challenge of living in the midst of the growing incomprehension of a secular world. -- David Walsh, Catholic University of America The topic of Social and Political Roles of Church in Today's Pluralist Society is of critical, current interest. The work includes an impressive range and reputation from its contributors, as well as a large variety of disciplines and ecclesial contexts. Casey and Ryan's collection could very well be used in a course on contemporary or global Catholicism. -- M. Cathleen Kaveny, Boston College
