Catechism of the Catholic Church, Revised Edition.
This book is the English translation of the Editio Typica. A
must have resource for clergy, seminarians, individuals, parish groups and
teachers.
Pope John Paul II commissioned this comprehensive catechism of the
Catholic Faith which was approved on the 20th anniversary of Vatican II.
The first edition of the new Catechism went out across the world in many
language versions. This gave the local Churches the chance to study it in
depth. Through their bishops and teachers they responded with comments on texts
that needed refinement. The present edition was developed in the light of these
comments and published in Latin as the definitive Editio Typica.
