I was given a copy of an advance copy and uncorrected proof of a book that is to be released in October 2010 by Harper One.
It is, The Jesuit Guide to Almost Everything: A Spirituality for Real Life by James Martin, S.J.
This is a book that I/we/you have been waiting for... and you are going to have to wait a few more months until it is released.
It is a substantial introduction to the Jesuit/Ignatian Way that deserves a wide reading audience. It is extremely well written. Informative and instructive, illuminative, encouraging, containing autobiography and stories, and has a devotional flavor throughout.
A few years ago, I read his absolutely delightful, My Life With the Saints, which was a spiritual memoir for how his journey has been enriched and deepened by his engagements with the great saints throughout the history of the church.
Put his forthcoming book on your Books To Get list.
