Dust jacket has edge scuffing with chips. ; 1.5 x 9.4 x 6.4 Inches; <P> In <I>A People Adrift</I>, a prominent Catholic thinker states bluntly that the Catholic Church in the United States must transform itself or suffer irreversible decline. Peter Steinfels shows how even before the recent revelations about sexual abuse by priests, the explosive combination of generational change and the thinning ranks of priests and nuns was creating a grave crisis of leadership and identity. <P> This groundbreaking book offers an analysis not just of the church's immediate troubles but of less visible, more powerful forces working below the surface of an institution that provides a spiritual identity for 65 million Americans and spans the nation with its parishes, schools, colleges and universities, hospitals, clinics, and social service agencies. <P> In <I>A People… Read More

Bloomsbury USA. New. 2007. Paperback. 1596910186 . Clean crisp bright. No marks. Agent's business card stapled to first page. Skillfully moving backward and forward in time, Banerji, a culinary historian based in the U. S.
