personal application . . . make the reading of these chapters an
exciting experience."-W. Norman Pittenger, New York Times Book
Review
"Paul Tillich is the most profound theologian of
post-fundamentalist religion. As Harvey Cox makes clear in his new
introduction, this book is a classic awaiting re-discovery by a new
generation."-Tom F. Driver, The Paul J. Tillich Professor of
Theology and Culture Emeritus, Union Theological Seminary in New
York
"The Courage to Be changed my life. It also profoundly
impacted the lives of many others from my generation. Now Harvey
Cox's fresh introduction helps to open up this powerful reading
experience to the current generation."-Robert N. Bellah, University
of California, Berkeley
"The essential character of courage, for Tillich, is 'in spite of.'
We must go on striving for freedom, justice, and our faith in spite
of oppositions. In this age of late capitalism, globalization, and
terrorism, we all need the virtue of courage as Harvey Cox
admirably argues in the foreword."-Nimi Wariboko, Andover Newton
Theological School, Newton Centre, MA
"Tillich struggled with the existential question how we may
overcome the demoralizing effects, on the individual and society,
of our Age of Anxiety. In this, his most popular book, Tillich
gives us his deeply thought answers, and Harvey Cox provides a
helpful new introduction."-Gerald Holton, Harvard University
