The Cry of the Wolfe: a compelling and engaging reader

This is an excellent work that anyone interested in the intersection of religion and culture should read. Wolfe embodies the very humanism he calls for in the introduction as well as his fine editing of "Image: A Journal for the Arts and Religion" You can sample his fine editorials online for each issue at imagejournal.org. He has assembled a brilliant, diverse mix of Christian scholars for this wonderful book.

A refreshing and stimulating book

Greg Wolfe seems to be charting new territory by bringing to light these extraordinary essays by some of our most gifted writers. I've sent copies to friends, and recommend it highly.
