The "dry bones" of the title are the critical equipment of the Christian scholar, wrestling with Bible and tradition; and the "life" they may or may not be capable of is the enriching of that Christian perspective on things which transforms and renews the possibilities of action and imagination.

It is an impressive and attractive book, written with clarity and warmth in equal measure, a rare thing' (Theology).
