This book provides a helpful reflection upon an issue regularly noticed by Gospel scholarship: Jesus consistently asks questions, and even responds to questions posed to him with a further question.

The pervasive use of the literary form of a question enabled the Gospel authors to present Jesus' rejection of superficiality. This book continues that tradition, focusing on the many superficialities of contemporary society. -Francis J.
