At the time of the Second Vatican Council, one of the central issues in theological discussion was the question of the Eucharist, particularly as regards the meaning of the Real Presence. In the following years the theology of the Eucharist entered a quieter period, and it is only recently that significant writing on the subject has got under way once again. This book makes a significant introduction to this new wave of reflection, drawing on these recent advances in theology and liturgy. In so doing Raymond Moloney draws together the fundamental tenets of the Eucharist and projects a synthesis of it with the rest of the faith and life.
