“Kallenberg's book is well-researched, energetically written, and stocked with engaging illustrations. By tracing the evolution of concepts such as form and self/subject through Wittgenstein's early, middle, and late writings, it has given me a better understanding than ever before of the sweep of Wittgenstein's thought—it even makes me want to re-read the
Tractatus

Ethics As Grammar
with great enthusiasm.” —Nancey Murphy, Professor of Christian Philosophy, Fuller Theological Seminary.
“For some years now Stanley Hauerwas has been engaged in the task of rethinking Christian ethics, imaginatively and controversially; Brad Kallenberg brings to bear his deep knowledge and understanding of the later philosophy of Wittgenstein to illuminate Hauerwas's project and Wittgenstein's, in ways that do justice to both—a remarkable achievement!” —Fergus Kerr, Regent, Blackfriars Hall, University of Oxford and Honorary Senior Lecturer, Divinity Faculty, University of Edinburgh
“
Ethics as Grammar
represents a quite flawless account of Ludwig Wittgenstein’s ‘project’ as well as a comprehensive overview of Stanley Hauerwas’s work, calling attention to the way in which Wittgenstein’s strategies inform Hauerwas’s.” —David B.

“In this extraordinary book, Kallenberg, by drawing on Wittgenstein, wonderfully exposes the high wire act that constitutes ‘my work’. This is an absolutely wonderful book. I learned again what I had forgotten.” —Stanley Hauerwas, Gilbert T. Howe Professor of Theological Ethics, Duke University
