The opening sermon, also printed here, was de- livered by the Archbishop of Canterbury; the papers which followed were given by the Rev. E. G. Parrinder, the Rev. Eric W. Heaton, Professor Dennis Nineham, the Rev. G. B. Caird, the Rev. M. F. Wiles, Canon F. W. Dillistone, Canon H. W. Montefiore, Professor L. A. Reid, Canon G. W. H. Lampe, the Rev. P. N. Hamilton and Canon Edward Carpenter. 15s net Prayer and Providence PETER BAELZ One way of approaching the theological questions connected with the doctrine of divine providence is to see them in the context of prayers of petition and intercession. What does the believer really expect when he prays for his fellow men? The questions which arise are all faced by the author, who in answering them is brought to the heart of religious belief, man's dependence upon God and its proper interpretation. And because no account of Christian prayer can be adequate which does not take seriously the Christian hope, he also indicates the way in which Christian life must move to the point of final reconciliation. 22s 6rf net Spirituality for Today Edited by ERIC JAMES The 1967 Parish and People Conference was held at Bede College, Durham at the end of August. This volume collects together the main papers given at the Conference, whose chairman was the Very Rev. John B. Coburn, Dean of the Episcopal Theological School, Cam- bridge, Mass. Miss Mollie Batten writes on 'Spirituality and Living in this World'; the Bishop of Durham on 'Theology Today and Spirituality Today'; Dr Harry Guntrip on 'Psychology and Spirit- uality'; Dr Charles Boxer, O.P. on 'The Contribution of Monasticism'; Canon Eric James on 'Liturgy and Spirituality for Today'; Colin Alves on 'Spirituality and Personal Growth'; and the Archbishop of Canter- bury on 'The Idea of the Holy and the World Today'. i2s6dnet SCM PRESS
