About the Author:
Ian Ker is a leading Newman scholar. He is the author of several books about Newman.
Review:
"Whether the reader is intimately familiar with Newman's writings or a beginner, this book deserves attention."--The Canadian Catholic Review "Each of these five portraits of the mind of Newman is magisterial, persuasive, and refreshing."--Theological Studies "This book displays an admirable familiarity with the whole corpus of Newman's writings."--The Thomist "An excellent, very readable summary of Cardinal Newman's intellectual achievement and its meaning for contemporary Christians..."--Library Journal "To portray the features that constitute the achievement of John Henry Newman (1801-90) in a single book is a bold task given the enormity of his corpus and the complexity of his thought. Yet Ian ker succeeds with aplomb." "The focus of concentration by Ker is well served and documented with significant insights into Newman's multifaceted personality."--Emmanuel "The Achievement of John Henry Newman provides a succinct and useful summary of ideas that should be on the reading list of anyone who has serious interest in liberal education."--History of Education Quarterly "Ker's brief study of several of Newman's major volumes (Idea of a University, Essay on Development, and Grammar of Assent) will serve as a fine introduction to Newman the writer and thinker. Highly recommended."--Choice
