As Master of the Dominican Order in Rome for nine years, he held one of the most senior and influential appointments the Catholic Church has on offer. But he is a member of an Order of Preachers and is thus truly apostolic. The order's motto consists of one word, Veritas (Truth), and it is the vigorous pursuit of intellectual and emotional truth which is the hallmark of his writing. This new book will not disappoint his admirers. Here, Fr Radcliffe argues that Christianity will only thrive today, overcoming the challenges of secularism and religious fundamentalism, if we rediscover the beauty of baptism. It touches the deepest dramas of human life: birth, growing up, falling in love, daring to give oneself to others, searching for meaning, coping with suffering and failure, and eventually death.</span></span><br /><span style="tab-stops:left 45.8pt left 91.6pt left 137.4pt left 183.2pt left 229pt left 274.8pt left 320.6pt left 366.4pt left 412.2pt left 458pt left 503.8pt left 595.4pt left 641.2pt left 687pt left 732.8pt;"><span> </span></span><br /><span><span> </span></span><br /></span>
