This book is written out of a concern for closer relationships between Anglicans and Roman Catholics, and from a conviction that the agreed statements of the Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission have left more unfinished business than what they have so magnificently achieved. It is an overall review of the present relationship between Rome and Canterbury.
