Reviews

This book will be welcomed by those who wrestle with the challenge of understanding the distinctively Catholic character of Catholic universities. Its special contribution is to show how research, scholarship, and the production of new knowledge are intrinsic to the project of 'emerging catholicity' that should be central to the Catholic university's self-understanding. -Joseph Appleyard, SJ, vice president for university mission and ministry, Boston College The greatest strength of this helpful, informative, and exciting text is its originality. The author takes the discussion of the Catholic intellectual tradition beyond the debate between elevated common sense and ideologically charged calls for 'fidelity' by placing it on a sound intellectual footing in the philosophical system of a modern master of Catholic thought. While some of his views are controversial, his efforts to show the wider usefulness of the intra-Catholic debate are highly commendable. Agree or not, the reader will be immensely stimulated. -Paul Lakeland, Rev. Aloysius P. Kelley, SJ, Professor of Catholic Studies, Fairfield University


Haughey has thrown his whole self into this work. Where Is Knowing Going? manifests a cosmic desire expressed in lapidary formulae, pithy expressions, and gripping turns of phrases. -- Theological Studies
