Iota Unum

A Study of Changes in the Catholic Church in the Twentieth Century

Subtitled "A study of changes in the Catholic Church in the 20th century," the book, written by an Italian academic who served as a peritus at Vatican II and was a friend of the late Cardinal Guiseppe Siri, caught attention for many reasons.

The late Michael Davies unfolded Iota Unum's breadth of detail and scope: "Among the topics discussed are...

• the background to Vatican II
• the course of the Council
• post-Conciliar Catholicism
• the crisis in the priesthood
• the adulation of youth
• feminism
• the religious orders
• divorce, abortion, the death penalty
• democracy in the Church
• ecumenism
• the liturgy and the new sacramental rite
• a historical examination of the principal crises in the church

"Professor Amerio, explains with great clarity...the theological, philosophical and sociological roots of the present crisis....Traditional Catholics should lend and discuss the book with any sympathetic conservative priests...and copies should be donated to bishops." - Michael Davies
