In this provocative book James K. A. Smith, one of the most engaging Christian scholars of our day, offers an innovative approach to hermeneutics. The second edition of Smith's well-received debut book provides updated interaction with contemporary hermeneutical discussions and responds to criticisms.

Short Review: Book Review: The Fall of Interpretation: Philosophical Foundations for a Creational Hermeneutic by James KA Smith - an interesting book about what it means to be created as finite creatures and how that affects the way we consider interpretation. Primarily Smith is thinking about interpretation of scripture, but also interpretation of all other communication as well. This is a second edition of what was originally Smith's PhD dissertation, so it leans academic (for Smith that means continental philosophy), but still understandable if you are not a philosopher (as I am not.)
