John Paul II: The Encyclicals in Everyday Language, an Orbis bestseller, now includes the Pope's most recent encyclical Fides et Ratio ("Faith and Reason"). Father Donders gives us the gist of this complex encyclical and the twelve that preceded it in easy-to-read sense lines. In a penetrating epilogue entitled "The Man and the Message", Father Donders offers a profound interpretation of John Paul II's legacy and the unity of his thirteen encyclicals. Here Donders shows that the pope's teaching is best understood as an expression of his fundamental intuition into the meaning of Christianity.

This encyclical, promulgated by Pope John Paul II on September 14, 1998, deals primarily with the relationship between faith and reason. Faith needs reason, for without reason, it leads to superstition. Reason without faith leads to nihilism and relativism. The key to the document is the appeal that faith and philosophy recover that profound unity which allows them to stand in harmony without compromising their mutual autonomy.

In a papacy that lasted for over twenty-six years (1978-2005), Pope John Paul II has left behind an enormous legacy. This one of a kind book contains a selection of quotes from more than 70,000 pages of the teachings of Pope John Paul II which are found in his encyclicals, apostolic exhortations, letters, homilies, addresses, and other texts published during his long pontificate. The editors have divided the material into twelve categories or chapters, provided an introduction for each chapter, and have chosen the most relevant material in each area. Themes range from the divine self-revelation, to the sacraments and liturgy, to the Christian spiritual life. It is the editors' intention to let the Pope speak for himself rather than paraphrasing the material. They have also focused on material which impacts the whole Church and world rather than limited audiences. Teachers and students of all areas of theology will find this to be a required addition to their library.

In Pope John Paul II Speaks on Women, Brooke Williams Deely presents a comprehensive record of John Paul II's reflections. This collection brings to the forefront the full context and content of his original contributions. Since John Paul II encouraged women and men to expand what he has adumbrated, this book facilitates ongoing dialogue. The principle of the organization of the volume is chronological, compiling John Paul II's teachings on the subject of women arranged by date over the entire term of his Papacy. Since this influential Pope addressed the situation of women from the beginning of his pontificate, this overview of his writings and his spoken addresses best showcases the development and historical context of his thought.
