the Reasoning Heart: Jean-Claude Colin and Marist Spirit in Bloomington, MN

After many years in tertiary and adult education, and after publishing widely on moral issues, for instance, Shame, Hope and the Church: A Journey with Mary, Marist Father Tom Ryan explores the affective dimension of Jean-Claude Colin, the founder of the Society of Mary. Colin's thinking is well documented as the result of many years of research by Marist scholars, and Father Ryan brings considerable expertise in the psychology of affect. The combination makes for a particularly rich and timely work, one which should have pride of place on your reading list.
