Description: "Report from the Synod: John Paul II and the Battle for Vatican II" began as an effort to chronicle the 1985 Extraordinary Synod, convened by Pope John Paul II to assess the implementation of the Second Vatican Council. However, through what the author saw as providential insight, the book goes beyond the Synod itself, delving into Pope John Paul II’s mission to correct modern misinterpretations of the Council and restore its true vision of renewal. Richard Cowden-Guido examines the key players—the Council, the bishops, Cardinal Ratzinger, and the Pope—delivering a gripping and comprehensive account of the ongoing struggle for the soul of Vatican II. Written with the narrative energy of a great novel, this book offers a definitive history of the Council and the strategic brilliance of Pope John Paul II.
