About this title

Synopsis

A guide to reading Lonergan Bernard Lonergan's Insight, one of the great philosophical works of the 20th century, is without question a challenging book for beginning readers. In this practical and welcome work, Terry J. Tekippe provides readers with a first reading guide, emphasizing what is truly essential and central to the book. The plan of the guide is not to cover everything in the book, but to assign readings of only certain chapters or parts of chapters. This will allow readers to make their way through a first reading without becoming distracted. The author provides a summary of each chapter and questions for reflection. This book: ―makes Lonergan accessible to nonprofessionals. ―is an important teaching tool. ―is reader-friendly. †
