Synopsis
From the basic ideas and terms, to its structures and practices, this book offers a plain-speaking introduction to Roman Catholicism. It covers: / Roman Catholic beliefs and traditions / Practices and devotional life - rituals, prayer, mass / The Church structures and authorities - from Vatican to parish church / The Church hierarchies and people - from bishops to the laity / The role of the Church in society. With glossary, further reading sections and an appendix on the history of the Papacy, this is the perfect guide for anyone wanting to understand more about Roman Catholicism.

A good basic starting point, for those interested on the Roman Catholic faith. I read it in a week at the Woodlands NLB branch, under the reference section.
