Synopsis
Many people believe that the Roman Catholic Church's teaching on marriage is clear and consistent: marriage is a sacrament, the marriage contract is indissoluble, divorce and remarriage are forbidden.
In this book, theologians, historians, and sociologists overhaul the church's teaching and practice on divorce and remarriage, as well as personal testimonies from a number of persons who have gone through the annulment process.

Review
"A valuable addition to the theology of marriage. . . . The connection between real people's experience of the annulment process and the theology behind annulments makes this work a welcome shift from previous writings on the theology of marriage and annulments."-Choice
Reviewed in Catholic Library World, March 2001
Highlights: "This book is of high quality."
"Have you ever wondered why the Catholic Church's teaching and practice of annulments have been met with so much criticism over the last few decades? Well, here is a book for you! Overall, this book is a real joy to read. It's full of little kernels of wisdom, and it challenges many of our taken-for-granted understanding of the basis for the church's position on divorce and remarriage. For these reasons, the book will be interest to a variety of audiences, from pastors and counselors, to sociologists, historians, canon lawyers, and church leaders. Ultimately, however, the book will be most helpful to Catholic individuals and families who have suffered the trauma of marital breakdown."
—James C. Cavendish, Sociology of Religion, Spring 2002
"...everyone who is concerned about the problem of Catholic divorce and remarriage will find something of interest in this book."
—James A. Corden, New Theology Review 15:2 (2002)
