My Quests for Hope and Meaning: An Autobiography
This is a very gripping book. I read it twice, and found it convincing and at points very moving. --Joseph C. Hough, Jr., Union Theological SeminaryThis autobiography by one of the most distinguished and influential thinkers of our time transcends the boundaries of autobiography. We learn a lot about Rosemary Ruether, but because so much is about her thought, and her thought is so insightful, we learn a great deal about the world in which we have all been living. Ruether is a severe critic of what has been, but she also offers hope for what may yet be. --John Cobb, Claremont School of TheologyScholars, students, and seekers will all find much to ponder in Rosemary Reuther's intellectual autobiography. Those who know her work and significance will appreciate this intimate disclosure of the ideas, insights, and people that have shaped her scholarship. Those interested in the evolution of a leading feminist thinker will be fascinated by the unfolding story of this exceptional life. And those searching themselves will be instructed and encouraged by her quest for hope and meaning. --William E. Lesher, Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago
