In this revised and updated edition of Pope Benedict XVI, Thomas Rausch, SJ, examines and critically assesses the pope’s extensive contribution to theology. So much has happened since the first edition was published, including the role of the laity, the liturgy, the sexual-abuse scandals, and the increasing role of Vatican II on the Church, that, with some distance, we can now assess the important role of this pope’s enormous and significant theological vision.
