Dietrich Bonhoeffer remains one of the twentieth century’s most influential theologians and this is a  short, accessible and engaging introduction to the man. Written by an internationally acclaimed Bonhoeffer scholar, the book considers the role Bonhoeffer played in resisting the Nazis and his attitude to the Jews and the Holocaust.

A reliable and readable guide to Bonhoeffer’s legacy for a new generation of students and a much wider circle of readers.
