(Gerald E., did one of your parents work for the showbiz newspaper Variety? Family motto: Stix Nix Hix Flix....)

The book is great. Short, fun, useful for developing the right attitude about the subect, and inexpensive: I bought two and have been lending them around and around the office and my friends......

I was looking at the list and I am dismayed that the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, is not even on the list of bestsellers. This is a huge indicator to me that American Catholics are content staying in their liberal and conservative boxes, and not truly explore exactly where the official Church stands. This Compendium is something I devoured as soon as I became aware of it last Spring through reading Zenit.org. I hope Mark has read it and promoted it- I cannot think of a better way to get close to the thinking of the Magisterium on issues pertaining to the temporal order than this resource. So where is the roar of approval and the demand among the 'faithful' laymen for everyone to study this and put it into action? Have I missed something? Has EWTN even had one program devoted to it?

Funny story: Yesterday, while helping stuff the parent's weekly folder at my son's high school, the headmaster comes to me with a big box. "Here", he says, "This goes into the folder, too. A little gift; one for each Montfort Academy student."

How cool is it that each hs boy - and his family - will get to read your book?

Therese Z- as wee lad would devour local tabloid when my father of blessed memory would return home from Humongous Bank & Trust. Poor delicate young mind shaped by the three food groups- political corruption, bad baseball team, Broadway gossip. Mostly final category. Was already hip to who played on Broadway, opened at Copa, dined at Sardi's, made remarks at Toots Shor's triggering laffs and merriment. Made for a well-rounded childhood. Thus obsessions this very day- nasty divorces, who dined at trendy Soho bistro, who was seen canoodling with person not lawful wedded spouse. Scars remain. Wiggety wiggety wiggety.

First, I requested my library buy your book. Gave them the ISBN number and everything. They ordered a book with the same title by a different author, who is apparently a Protestant. I wasn't impressed.

Second, re: Compendium. Went to my local megabookmart. Asked if they had it. The gal couldn't FIND IT IN THE SYSTEM. I said, no prob. I'll go to my local Catholic bookstore (many miles away - I was trying to save gas). Five minutes later while I'm browsing, she comes up to me..."Ummm, that book. Was it written by...uhhh, THE POPE?"

I did manage to leave with a straight face. But just barely.
