            Glad Joel reminded us of Wright's book, which I need to order. Buy from
    independent booksellers & help my daughter & other right minded people to keep their
    jobs!
            Another resource - which I haven't yet read but, knowing the editors, think is
    probably worthwhile, is
            _Resurrection: Theological and Scientific Assessmenmts_, edited by Ted Peters,
    Robert John Russell and Michael Welker (Eerdmans, 2002).
            & while I'm at it, I'll mention an older book that's quite good by an RC
    theologian, Gerald O'Collins, _Jesus Risen_ (Paulist, 1987). I reviewed this for the
    March 1989 PSCF.
                                                            Shalom,
