American Catholic dilemma

an inquiry into the intellectual life.

Edición de la obra American Catholic dilemma

How well do Catholic schools measure up? Have American Catholics contributed their share to the arts and sciences? Is the censorship mentality a danger to Catholic intellectual growth? Has conformity become the hallmark of American Catholicism? In the provocative book a Catholic professor of sociology provides the frank, often disconcerting, answers and then points the way to a renewal of controversy within the Church and a reawakening of the American Catholic to the rewards of intellectual life.
