Reviews"Newly translated by Maria Boulding, O.S.B., whose masterful
translation of Augustine's Confessions in the same series has been
praised as being of a different level of excellence from
practically anything else in the market."Bishop Rowan Williams
Monmouth, England"Maria Boulding's new translation of Saint
Augustine's magnificent Expositions of the Psalms is cause for
celebration. Not only are the wraps taken off this least known of
Augustine's major works, we are accompanied by a penetrating
scholarly text. Every student of early Christian thought and
spirituality will be grateful to have at last such open access to
this crucial work."Dr. Michael Cameron
