In The Eye of the Catholic Storm
The Church since Vatican II

During a snowstorm that left them virtually cut off from the outside world, a nun, a bishop and a journalist discussed, argued and explored the troubling issues fracturing human society today: poverty amidst plenty, the spiraling war on drugs, environmental destruction, and the excesses of militarism in the aftermath of the Gulf War.

Three prominent and controversial Christians face these difficult issues, and, despite their differences, unite in their call for the Church to deal vigorously and meaningfully with contemporary problems.

Articulate, uncompromising and frank, In the Eye of the Catholic Storm looks back to the failed promises of Vatican II and ahead to the challenges and opportunities for the Church as it enters its 21st century.
