Review
Extensive expositions and analyses of Luther's ethical deliberations
are rare in Luther research. This work, like a good mountain
guide, offers a dependable approach to the top of Luther's moral
teaching. It will initiate novices into Luther studies and
stimulate experts to wrestle with the rich legacy of Luther's
thought . . .

In hindsight, there prove to be three evident
reasons why the "Essay" of F. Edward Cranz has outlived
the scores of Luther studies published since World War II: - It
presents the historical Luther, hence a man of growth and change; -
It takes the measure of the whole Luther, breaking through the
barriers of preoccupation with the young Luther; - Above all, it
bridges the realms of high theology and societal reform, thus
providing us with access to the mystery of Luther's astonishing
impact.
