A book published by Fayard in 1961 on the claim to truth made by Christian faith and the offence, or scandal, that this claim gives to an age inclined to relativism. W. J. Kerrigan's English translation was published by Helicon Press in 1962 as The Scandal of Truth, and in Britain by Burns & Oates.
