The Innsbruck Jesuit manual, for half a century among the most widely used in the seminaries of the world: Volume I on the principles of moral theology — the last end, human acts, laws, conscience, virtues, and sins — printed with the separate treatises On the Sixth Precept and the Use of Matrimony and On Ecclesiastical Penalties; Volume II on the precepts of the theological virtues, of the Decalogue, and of the Church; Volume III on the sacraments, from baptism through matrimony. Compact, orderly, and exact — the manual later writers cite simply as 'Noldin'.
