Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971) -- whom President Barack Obama
famously named as his -favorite philosopher- in a 2007 interview --
was arguably the most influential American theologian of the
twentieth century. Gabriel Fackre's Promise of Reinhold Niebuhr has
long provided a compact introduction to Niehbuhr's life and
thought. With Niebuhr's enduring legacy again rising to prominence
in political and religious circles, Fackre has reworked his
standard account of this iconic -visionary realist- for a new
generation. In this revised and updated third edition, Fackre
crystallizes key themes in Niebuhr's writings, addresses and
debunks -Tall Tales- that have sprung up around Niebuhr's legacy,
and applies Niebuhr's thinking to twenty-first-century theological
and cultural issues.
