This book takes the success of the dinosaurs - dominating the planet for over 160 million years - as an educational tool for the future of the Catholic Church. This book describes a spirituality for the 21st century which requires that we recognize the dinosaur nature of all institutions, including the Catholic Church. We would do well to study the species in depth and in detail to learn how to dance with them without doing serious damage to ourselves. Mark Patrick Hederman is Abbot of Glenstal Abbey, Co Limerick, Ireland.
