Scholarly *and* Spiritual
I just love this book. I bought McBrien's Lives of the Saints at the same time and this one is far superior in that it is scholarly without losing its spirituality. You get more than just a biographical sketch, you also get a sense of the spirit of each saint, including quotations. The quality of the paper, printing and binding is superior as well---this book will last for generations. I am now ...

Kathleen Jones
Canterbury

The writings of Richard Dawkins challenge Christians (and people of other faiths) to think more deeply about their beliefs and shake them out of any complacency. Christians need to hear some of the uncomfortable things he says and to know how to answer his alluring claims. Here is a robust and informed challenge to Dawkins' gospel of atheism.

A superb survey of female Saints down through time.
Women Saints deserves ongoing mention as an inspiring survey of female saints in a subject partial to men. Headings from 'visionaries' to 'martyrs' and 'penitents' provide themes for lives which cover all centuries and cultures. Highly recommended.

Living Between Danger and Love: The Limits of Choice

Gradaute Student at Columbia University
This is the kind of book that resonates with you way after you finish. The true stories are engaging and yet hauntingly sad. The images are strong and powerful. Jones evokes questions that keep popping into everyday stuff I do or subjects I am talking about. It makes me see and hear things slightly differently -- relationships,appearances, and the choices we make. Very nice.
