Further to the news that Dr Edward Norman is to be received into the Catholic Church on Sunday, under the aegis of the Ordinariate, both an extended review of Dr Norman's most recent books, and a study of the Ordinariate, are included in this volume.

student of mine who, in addition to being a very lapsed and strongly

The joys of an academic staff library card.
ReplyDeleteHow did I ever get by without one? With a postgrad library card, of course. And with an undergrad one before that. 15 years without a break, always the same email address and everything.
