Jesus of Nazareth
Benedict XVI, Pope
Pope Benedict’s important new work on the Jesus Christ of faith and history
A luminous new work by the Pope which presents in a fresh and inspiring way the person of Jesus Christ, true God and true Man, by examining what Scripture says about him. Pope Benedict successfully corrects certain erroneous tendencies in modern biblical scholarship which have diminished our confidence in the reliability of Scripture and in our ability to know Jesus through it. He offers instead a powerful re-affirmation of the divinity of Christ and fresh understanding of his teachings.

John Paul the Great
Maker of the Post-Conciliar Church
Oddie, William (Ed.)
Thematic exploration of John Paul II's impact on the Church
John Paul the Great is a collection of essays by distinguished Catholic writers, each assessing, 25 years after he became Pope, some aspect of Karol Wojtyla's extraordinary achievement The book establishes clearly that this has been not merely an exceptional pontificate but one of a handful of epoch-making pontificates in Christian history. Further, that Pope John Paul II is not only an historical figure whose actions and personal qualities have effected one of the great turning points in human affairs but who is also one of those rare beings who possesses
the vision and intensity of focus that allow us to say not only that this exceptional pope, hut something much more that here, truly, is Joannes Paulus Magnus, John Paul the Great.
Far from being a reactionary this has been a pope of startling originality and intellectual range, who has led and inaugurated change as well as defending the tradition of the Church. Newman wrote of Gregory. the Great that he was one of those popes who have ‘never been slow to venture out upon a new line, when it was necessary, and who, independent of times and places, have never found any difficulty, when the proper moment came, of following out a new and daring line of policy.
