Hellwig (theology, Georgetown U.) brings her knowledge of Catholic Christian tradition and her lifetime of witness to bear in her commentary on human responsibility in public life and the effects of morals and spirituality involved in exercising that responsibility. She recalls some of her experiences as a child in a Jewish/Christian family under nazism, as a refugee, as a participant in rebuilding and an observer of Vatican II as she describes broad and current issues such as dissent, obedience, humility, power, loyalty, truthfulness, compromise, justice, patriotism, discipleship, compassion, family, ambition, contemplation, tradition, change and community, comparing them to similar issues of the past and the Catholic Christian response. The result is a simple, moving and thought-provoking set of challenges to those who consider their private faith in their public life. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
