Catholicism: Christ and the Common Destiny of Man​ - Henri de Lubac
This book first appeared just over fifty years ago. It is the pilgrimatic work of one of the 20th century's greatest theologians. Deeply rooted in tradition, it breaks ground and sows seeds which will bear their fruit in the Second Vatican Council's central documents on the Church. Here, de Lubac gathers from throughout the breadth and length of Catholic tradition elements which he synthesizes to show the essentially social and historical character of the Catholic Church and how this worldwide and age long dimension of the Church is the only adequate matrix for the fulfillment of the person within society and the transcendence of the person towards God. Preface by Cardinal Ratzinger, because it is a classic that deserves to be read and reread by every educated Catholic.

Reviews
"Few of our living authors have given us a work at once so profound, so apt and so persuasive as this of the great French Jesuit. Certainly, few could have written the book on the basis of such a rich knowledge of the Christian tradition.... De Lubac's thought has the originality which springs from the contact with a great tradition of a brilliant, deep and charitable mind. And it has a contemporaneity that bears witness to a profound, all-embracing, human concern."
-Dom Christopher Butler, Abbot of Downside

"We cannot leave it without referring to its almost incredible comprehensiveness of view. De Lubac writes of the Church in such a way as to allow fully for the truth there is in Protestant or Liberal views of the Christian society."
-Church Times

Henri de Lubac author of numerous works on theology and spirituality, is well known as one of the greatest theologians of this century.
