""Saved From Sacrifice"" will surely prove to be one of the most important of recent analyses of atonement and violence as well as the most thorough from a Girardian perspective. Its restatement of an atonement motif holds out the promise of productive conversation with other strands of theology.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">S.
