Summary:
"The immensely popular Pope Francis seeks to bring the church back from the right to center, in what can almost be described as a populist stance, blurring the lines between politics, religion and culture. He has put the topics of women, finance, scandal, and reform at the fore. John L. Allen, a journalist on the staff of the Boston Globe, specializing in coverage of Catholicism and the Vatican, is hailed as the best-sourced and most knowledgeable English-speaking journalist covering the Vatican today."--Provided by publisher.
