Written in 1929-1930 a Dietrich Bonhoeffer's second dissertation, this book deals with the questions of consciousness and conscience in theology fro the perspective of the Reformation insight about the origin of human sinfulness in the "heart turned in upon neither to the revelation of God nor to the encounter with the neighbor."

More About the Author
Dietrich Bonhoeffer was born in Breslau in 1906. The son of a famous German psychiatrist, he studied in Berlin and New York City. He left the safety of America to return to Germany and continue his public repudiation of the Naz*s, which led to his arrest in 1943. Linked to the group of conspirators whose attempted assassination of Hitlerr failed, he was hanged in April 1945.

Hard, but worth it.,
This review is from: Act and Being (Dietrich Bonhoeffer Works, Vol. 2) (Hardcover)
Absolutely amazing book. It took me about three months to read this, which is very unusual for me. Normally a book of this length would take me an afternoon. But this is hands down the hardest work I've ever read. However, it is worth the time to wade through. Bonhoeffer's theology is brilliant, and his thoughts in this about how theology and preaching fit together were spot on. Not for beginners, but if you have a solid footing in theology and Bonhoeffer studies, read this book.
