Edmund J. Fortman's Theology of Man and Grace: A Commentary-Readings in the Theology of Grace (1966) is a foundational collection of readings examining theological understandings of divine grace. It serves as a textbook, gathering key texts from a variety of theologians and perspectives to illustrate the development and nuances of the doctrine of grace. Fortman provides commentary to guide the reader through the complex, sometimes conflicting, perspectives on grace, focusing on Roman Catholic, scriptural, and historical perspectives. The work examines the relationship between human nature and the free gift of God's grace, exploring how grace affects human beings.
