| This one-of-a-kind single-volume, popular encyclopedia is based on, complements, and makes more useful and usable, the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Written for the average Catholic, it is not a simplified or "watered-down" treatment of the Faith. This comprehensive reference provides an in-depth presentation of Catholic doctrine in accord with the Magisterium of the Church. The more than 400 entries cover topices ranging from war, hope, and the Antichrist to angels, calumny, and miracles.
The 38 contributors are specialists in their fields, and include noted authors such as Archbishop Francis George. O.M.I., Father J. Augustine DiNoia, O.P., Richard Doerflinger, Scott Hahn, William E. May, and many others. A "must have" for every home, school, parish, and library.
About the Editor: Russell Shaw is the former Director of Public Information of the Knights of Columbus. He is the author or coauthor of thirteen books, and editor of several others, as well as a prolific writer of articles, columns, and reviews.
