True Reform
For Massimo Faggioli, the debate about the meaning of Vatican II too often misses the profound significance of that council's first and perhaps most consequential document, Sacrosanctum Concilium. The result is a misunderstanding of both the council as a whole and the liturgical reform that followed from it. In True Reform, Faggioli takes Sacrosanctum Concilium as a hermeneutical key to the council. He offers a thorough reflection on the relationship between the liturgical constitution and the whole achievement of Vatican II and argues that the interconnections between the two must emerge if we want to understand the impact of the council on global Catholicism.
A Holy Yet Sinful Church
This text examines three key moments in the developing theology of the church’s holiness and sinfulness in the twentieth century: the ressourcement movement of the 1930s to the 1950s, the Second Vatican Council (1962–65), and the pontificate of John Paul II (1978–2005). The aim of this text is to make accessible the works of Emile Mersch, Henri de Lubac, Hans Urs von Balthasar, Yves Congar, Karl Rahner, and Charles Journet that discuss the holiness and sinfulness of the church and to demonstrate how these works were influential in composing the Dogmatic Constitution on the Church, Lumen Gentium. The author then considers how this developing theology is put into practice in Pope John Paul II’s millennial program, which centers on admitting that the Church in its members has sinned and needs to seek forgiveness.

Vatican II
"In [book title], an international team of theologians offers a different reading of the documents from Vatican II. The Council was indeed putting forth a vision for the future of the Church, but that vision was grounded in two millennia of tradition. Taken together, these essays demonstrate that Vatican II's documents are a development from an established antecedent in the Roman Catholic Church."--Back cover.

The Wheezers & Dodgers
A rare look inside the Department of Miscellaneous Weapon Development, “a fascinating report on the trials—and some tribulations—of a clandestine world” (Kirkus Reviews).

La foi catholique, tout simplement
" Par cet ouvrage, cher Guy, tu viens rejoindre celles et ceux qui cheminent en quête de lumière sur leurs pas, à l'affût d'un rocher sur lequel bâtir la maison de leur vie. Les questions auxquelles réponds sont bien celles que j'entends dans les discussions que je peux avoir avec nos contemporains : celles que l'on se pose et celles que l'on ne se pose pas ; celles que l'on devrait se poser et celles que l'on élude. Formulées ou à déchiffrer, ces questions révèlent - toutes - cette quête de Dieu qui habite d'une façon ou d'une autre le coeur de chaque être humain, qu'il l'accepte ou non, qu'il soit capable de la conceptualiser ou non. Tu as su présenter avec cohérence de pr...
