to his political thought and the centrality of Augustine’s theology to his account of the acquisition of the virtues. The author deepens our understanding of what is usually thought to be an early instance of a “mirror for princes”—The City of God 19.5—by showing the importance of humility and repentance for persons in political authority. Christ and the Just Society in the Thought of Augustine is a most welcome addition to the literature on Augustine’s political thought and will be especially valued by graduate students and scholars. One hopes that the extraordinarily high price Cambridge University Press has attached to this book does not deter too many of those who would find it of interest.
