O knihe

"I salute Brown's achievement in bringing Augustine out of the tomb of theological doctrine, and setting his mind and emotions working before our eyes."--Richard Southern, New Statesman

"He has attained to the true stature of his subject."--Owen Chadwick, Catholic Herald

"It is an intellectual biography, a portrait in depth of the man, and a brilliant study of the period."--J. M. Cameron, New York Review of Books
