    In Morality in Social Life, by Fr. Sergio Bastianel, SJinsists that moral life and social life are interconnected. Hebases his arguments on his insight that human beings liveout their existence in relationship to others. This is the coreof his thesis. For Bastianel the Christian interpretation ofhistory, with its goal of community, asks in each situationabout the human quality of relationships and the structures

    of social life. This book addresses the interconnectionsbetween personal morals and social justice, raisingfundamental questions about political life and economics,

    about hunger and development, about common good and institutions. Such isthe reflection to which these pages summon readers. Available for the specialInternet price of $26.39 from Convivium Press, 7661 N.W. 68th St., Miami, FL33166. E-mail: [email protected]. Web site:www.conviviumpress.com.

    Standing in the Shoes My Mother Made, by Diana L.Hayes is a compilation of lectures, book chapters, and

    articles written over the course of her journey as a Catholicwomanist theologian. Perhaps a sentence from the Prefacebest describes this volume. "[T]hese chapters seek to revealto those who read them the perspective of a woman ofAfrican descent in the United States who has, as mostCatholic scholars, struggled to have her voice heard,especially within the Roman Catholic Church." Her storyunfolds in four parts:Introduction: Standing in the Shoes My Mother Made

    Part 1: Faith and Worship Part 2: Ministry and Social Justice Part 3: The Public Face of Faith Part 4: A Womanist Faith Challenge
