Synopsis:
In this enlightening book, William Barry and Robert Doherty explain just what makes Jesuits tick. Through an exploration of Jesuit spirituality―what makes it different from other spiritualities, even Ignatian spirituality―they help readers understand this religious order that has played a significant role in the life of individuals, of communities and of cultures. They demonstrate that at the heart of Jesuit spirituality lies a set of lifegiving and creative tensions between, for example, companionship and mission, obedience and learning from experience, and center and periphery in the Church. The ideal reader of this book― ―graduates of Jesuit schools and universities. ―those who work with Jesuits. ―anyone interested in the spirituality of the Catholic Church. †
