Not for the casual reader, "Interpreting the New Testament" by Daniel J. Harrington, S. J., Ph.D., explains how the methods used in the study of literature can also be effectively employed in reading the New Testament. Each chapter consists of an exposition of a method of criticism, two examples of how the method can be applied to specific texts, and a list of bibliographic suggestions. It is a small book, just 149 pages, but packed with information. Theology students will find it especially useful.
