Vatican Council II: Constitutions, Decrees, Declarations: The Basic Sixteen Documents

As Pope Francis leads the worldwide church wholly within and from the teachings of the Council (1962-65), there is a great need in college classrooms and parish faith formation groups--as well as for individuals--to again have access to these documents in contemporary English. This volume contains the sixteen official documents--constitutions, decrees, and declarations--of the Second Vatican Council in the most popular and widely used inclusive-language edition translated by Irish Dominican Austin Flannery (+2008). This edition is also presented with a larger, more readable font than previous editions.
