Overview

The Dominicans are to be found in every part of the world and engaged in every sort of activity, from fighting for justice and peace to painting and poetry. They live on many frontiers, of the Church and of the World, of the rich and of the poor, of the West and East, and these are places of growth and discovery. This book will communicate some of the inspiration and excitement to be found there by women and men who are both utterly committed to their faith but also to what is to be learned as well.
The Church needs a blast of Dominican fresh air. The book points to the quality of that fresh air. Introduced by Timothy Radcliffe.

A blast of Dominican fresh air.
Inspired and directed by Timothy Radcliffe.
