Here ends my little detour into one of those forgotten voices of the first half of the 20th Century - Emil Brunner.  While there was a third volume to his Dogmatics, it was not printed as much, based on a WorldCat search as well as used book prices...  It also does not appear to be available online, unlike the first two.

The chief value I find in Brunner is that he is readable, quotable, and sometimes even prayable. It is a fine introduction to what those "neo-orthodox" theologians were trying to do in re-articulating reformation theology after the Enlightenment - a task that has not gone away, even if you do not agree with their ways of doing it.

About this edition - Barth links still largely go nowhere with the current Logos edition of Barth.  I am not total consistent about what is and is not linked....  If you fix and add things, please share them with us...
