Ugh! Cliche! 
If you think you're going to get some brilliant insights here, pass over this book. It's basically a review of most of the Jesus-literature that's been out there for the past 30 years or so. It appears Father Nolan is just catching up. Skip this one

Offers perspectives and lessons which make for deeper spiritual insights. 
Albert Nolan's JESUS TODAY: A SPIRITUALITY OF RADICAL FREEDOM offers a fine sequel to his popular classic JESUS BEFORE CHRISTIANITY, and focuses on the spirituality of Jesus and his relevance in modern times. This outline is perfect for Christian spiritual holdings: if offers perspectives and lessons which make for deeper spiritual insights.

Exciting, Englightening and Helpful
Finally, a book that does not focus on the historical Jesus or cover and recover that typical ideas and insights into Jesus. It seems as though Albert Nolan, a Domincan priest, is a person who has engaged in the spiritual life both in thought and action, and is able to say something "new". Not just new, but this book gave me something worth reading on almost every page.
In short --- the book "resurrects" Jesus into the modern world without diminishing his stature.
The book is divided into three sections: The first presents a depiction of the present day world. The second paints a picture of Jesus' spirituality that can be seen by reading carefully the gospels. Third, Nolan describes a spirituality which will be meaniningful in part or in toto for the readers themselves to follow.
Highly recommended.

New Spin 
I was hoping to find something new and enlightening here. Just a new spin on what has been said for over 2000 years. Difficult to determine where the author was going.

Fabulous
This is a must read. Albert Nolan is a great thinker and writer. This book is radically about Jesus. This is not the sugar-coated Jesus. This is for people seeking a deeper encounter.
