Carl R. Trueman and Other Christian Evangelical Scholars Examine the Life and Work of Renowned Catholic, Social Conservative Thinker Robert P. George

Robert P. George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton University, is one of the most influential conservative intellectuals of his generation. Among many honors and accolades, George received the US Presidential Citizens Medal from President George W. Bush and served as chairman of the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF). Though a Catholic himself, Georges influence has transcended traditional religious categories to shape evangelical discourse on politics, ethics, and political philosophy throughout his career. 

In this thorough introduction and careful analysis of Georges work for Protestant audiences, editor Andrew T. Walker gathers essays from high profile evangelical writers and academicsincluding Carl R. Trueman, Hunter Baker, Jennifer Marshall Patterson, and Scott Klusendorfto explore subjects such as faith and reason, Georges New Natural Law theory, and how to collaborate across ideological lines. Social Conservatism for the Common Good helps Christian evangelicals understand Georges philosophy and apply it to their own cultural engagement and public witness.
