Summary: very heavy stuff!
Comment: this work is typical fitzmyer. in case you don't know, he is a jesuit priest who is perhaps the MOST learned theologian on the continent. his writings are centrist in stance, although it is hard to deduce because he writes in a very detached way. this book is really a group of separate essays dealing with various NT topics. in general his style is scholarly and sometimes hard to follow. i have occasionally been frustrated by him because after reading an essay one knows more facts but still doesn't have the impression that he is leading one to a given posiiton. for example, he wrote an essay on the possibilies of the virgin birth. it was quite thorough and educating, but i still don't know what his opinion is! raymond brown wrote from a similar stance and on similar material but is more personal in his style - occasionally letting his faith shine through.
