In the midst of unprecedented change in the Church and the world, what is the rallying point of the revolution? What is the central focus for the preservation of human values? What is the emerging principle of order? What is the battle cry? Where is it all going to end? This book, by six responsible persons with varying professional background, does more to lay open the problem than give the answers. But it is a serious consideration of the tensions caused by the rise of the person in the postconciliar Church. The subject of the primacy of the person in the Church is dealt with from three points of view; the philosophical, the historical, and the sociological.
