il logan, and he possesses the gift OF
writing forcefully and Interestingly on
this obvious but obscure problem. In
five chapters he sums up the doctrine
of original sin, its consequences, the
state of fallen man, the Redemption,
and mans acceptance of Christ's
grace. Ponderous explanations, OBJ
scure and elusive phraseology, arid
and fruitless Speculations, all have
been eliminated from the present
treatise. The author carries one for
ward by the force of logic, the sweep
of vision, the sure grasp of modern
problems, and the simple splendor of
diction that characterize all his works.
The book will be most valuable to
the busy priest who desires a sue
cinct epitome of the whole doctrine of
original sin, and to the intelligent lay
man who is eager for a clearer under
standing of the nature of evil in this
world. Each will find in The Curse
of Adam, an able elucidation of the
effect, "Of Mans first disobedience
and the fruit of that forbidden tree"
AS an incentive to thought appropri-
ate to the seriousness of the Lenten
season this book will open new vistas,
and will impress one with the eternal
malice of sin.
