Commentary on the Catechism of the Catholic Church by Michael J. Walsh
An international group of theologians has been gathered to offer this commentary on the definitive text. The main themes of the Catechism - God, the incarnation, the Holy Spirit, the liturgy, the sacramental life of the Church, sin - are all discussed by writers drawn from theological faculties in Rome, Oxford, London, Dublin, Toronto, Washington DC and elsewhere. Their brief is to enter into a constructive dialogue with the text, drawing attention to its strengths, but equally criticizing its weaknesses. This commentary is intended to serve as a reference work for bishops, priests, theologians and teachers, as well as for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of the stance of Catholic theology at the end of Christianity's second millennium.
