Recommended to Fr. Ryan by:
Pope Benedict XVI
Recommended for:
All Catholics
This third in the series of the great encyclicals of Pope Benedict takes a different turn than expected. The work is masterful, but - i think - loses some of it's power when the social commentary sections start. They clearly weren't written by the Holy Father's hand and they make some odd and almost inconsistent arguments. Still, the first part of the document is astounding and a must read for all Catholics.
