The Official Library of JP Brown

Author: Weigel, George

Description:
Weigel’s massive work aspires to be definitive: it is subtitled “the,” not “a,” biography of John Paul II. Weigel, a Catholic layman and a fellow at the conservative Ethics and Public Policy Institute in Washington, D.C., enjoyed the cooperation of the pope and access to top Vatican officials, so the book is rich in new detail. Determined to explain this papacy from the “inside out,” Weigel successfully focuses on John Paul’s trademark ideas: Christian humanism, the inner connection between freedom and truth, and culture as the driving force of history.
