Product Overview

In this extraordinary book, the controversial and profoundly influential Hans Kng chronicles the Roman Catholic Churchs role as a world power throughout history. Along the way, he examines the great schismsbetween East and West, and Catholic and Protestantas well as the evolving role of the papacy, the stories of the great reforming popes, and the expansion of a global church infrastructure. The book concludes with a searching assessment of how the Catholic faith will confront the immense challenges posed in the new millennium by those seeking reform of traditional strictures.
