Language: English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n This book articulates a theory of Catholic tradition that departs from previous understandings. Drawing on the medieval concept of the four-fold sense of scripture, John Thiel proposes four interpretive senses of tradition. He also offers a theory of doctrinal development that reconciles Catholic belief in apostolic authority and continuity of tradition with a critical approach to the evidence of history.  \n\n                                         Editorial Reviews                   Review   \"...quite simply the finest piece of constructive theology I have read in years.
