From the back cover:

Here is the key to the thought of one of our time's central moral figures. It reveals Bonhoeffer's deep, firm roots in Christian doctrine to twentieth-century decisions every Christian must face. Essential for those interested in the development of Bonhoeffer's thinking, Christ the Center is as well an important addition to Christological thought and a clear guide to how we are to believe and act in the uncertainty of the times. These lectures originally delivered at the University of Berlin (reconstructed by Eberhard Bethge from students' notes) have been completely retranslated by Edwin Robertson for this new edition.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer has captured the imagination of people everywhere through his life and books, including Life Together and Letters and Papers from Prison. He was imprisoned by the Nazis and executed by them in 1945 for his stalwart resistance to Hitler.

2006 is the 100th anniversary of Bonhoeffer's birth. I have a personal challenge to read as many of his works as I can during this anniversary year.
