All of his writings, from the very beginning of his career, have pointed towards this culminating work. Now, in this long-awaited and long-heralded work, Professor Lonergan sets forth as thesis a basic theological pattern from which all theological method can be derived. It is a pattern that includes not only the logic of the classical period, but also takes into account modern scientific interest in inquiry, observation, discovery, experiment, synthesis, and verification; and provides as well a context for multi-dimensional levels of meaning. The result, in the words of David Tracy, is not "some new Lonerganian system," but the ëxplication of the essentially open and heuristic structure which theology already is." Remarking on the present work, the author has described it as ëxtending earlier results in four manners. First, it works out a philosophically grounded account of the operation of exegetes and historians. Secondly, since the problem of value-judgments cannot be evaded by the theologian, it has to be met head on; accordingly, there is evolved a type of dialectic that will bring into the open value judgments along with their assumptions, their implications, and their associations. Such dialectic will offer in the moral order some rough equivalent for the role of the crucial experiement in natural science. Theology.
