Modern Catholicism-Vatican II and After
Modern Catholicism: Vatican II and After, edited by Adrian Hastings and published by SPCK in London and Oxford University Press in New York. Excerpt: "This book has been planned and written to provide an authoritative one-volume guide to the Catholic Church and its developing life in the quarter-century since the close of the Second Vatican Council in December 1965. The Council was so immensely influential upon every side of the life of the Church that a history of the Church in this period can be little other than an account of the way the Council has been understood, implemented, built upon, or resisted . . . The writers of this book (with the exception of a single outsider) are committed Catholics, experts in their own areas. Our aim has been to combine objectivity with some degree of informed personal comment. Viewpoitns vary somewhat, as is inevitable, but we have avoided extremes and aimed above all at an informative reliability and clarity, the production of a handbook of modern Catholicism which will, we hope, remain of use for many years."
