About the book:
The official summary of Catholic doctrine issued in 1992 under Pope John Paul II the first comprehensive catechism since the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century.
The four-hundred-year gap is not incidental. The Church had been waiting since Vatican II to consolidate what it believed and taught into a single authoritative document. The result, compiled under Cardinal Ratzinger, covers the full range of Catholic doctrine across four parts the Creed, the sacraments, the moral life, and prayer drawing on scripture, the Church Fathers, the councils, and the saints. Two thousand years of accumulated teaching in a single, navigable volume.
Structured for both sequential reading and reference use. Clear in its organisation, precise in its language, and comprehensive in its scope in a way no summary document can be.
The standard reference for Catholic teaching, and an indispensable resource for anyone engaged with Catholic intellectual and moral tradition whether as a practitioner or a student of it.
Excellent secondhand condition.
