A man with strong liberal instincts, Timothy Radcliffe has held high office in the Roman Catholic Church and has a profound respect for the authority and teaching charisma of his Church. In this volume he has assembled the best of his recent addresses. At times, he is encouraging liturgical reform, at others encouraging local Bishops to stand up to Rome. With political sympathies to the left of centre, he shows himself in this new book to be passionately concerned with issues relating to environment, globalization and the pastoral care of the marginalized and dispossessed. Shot through with humour, friendship and wisdom, the pages of this book outline a manner of living which is at once faithful to the teachings of Jesus and rooted in the tradition of the church and at the same time responsive to the turbulence of the modern world.
