A new review of the T4CG book: Nick Spencer, in The Tablet, said the book left him "better informed about the philosophical and theological grounding of the concept of 'the common good', the nature of its engagement with particular ecclesial and theological traditions, and the way it might cash out in certain policy areas" ... It is "neither 'big-p political' nor is it especially interested in a Corbyn-style attempt to revivify the dismembered British Left". Together for the Common Good is "unhappy with the creeping libertarianism of public life." The book "boasts several eminent right-of-centre contributors" and, Spencer concludes, the common good is certainly "a way of thinking about how we might live together" and "we should not underestimate the need for such a 'common' vision right now."
