Book review of "India: Modern Architecture in History" and author interview with Peter Scriver and Amit Srivastav
Peter Scriver and Amit Srivastava, India
India, Modern Architectures in History by Peter Scriver and Amit Srivastava is a deceptively small publication, but its petite frame belies the range and depth of coverage.

Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
For close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB).
