Recenzii

"Andrew Goddard's portrait of Rowan Williams succeeds in being fair, shrewd, lively, and many-sided. In particular, he shows with crystal clarity that Rowan has actually modelled a different, and Christlike, form of 'leadership'. Among his astonishing array of accomplishments, that may be the most important." -- Professor Tom Wright, former Bishop of Durham "Here in this wonderful book you are given the opportunity to see a true living saint, scholar, and servant of God." -- Canon Andrew White, author of The Vicar of Baghdad "Early assessments are risky, but this one takes that risk with a commitment to fairness, and to affirmation as much as critique. Future commentary on this remarkable archbishop will be able to build on this picture, but this is a very helpful beginning to our understanding of the gifts we have received from Rowan Williams." -- Peter Selby, former Bishop of Worcester "Andrew is highly skilled as a writer and a theologian, which makes him an excellent person to paint this clear and fascinating portrait of Rowan Williams. It's a timely book for anyone wanting a deeper look at Rowan's legacy. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend it to you." -- Vicky Beeching, theologian, ethicist, writer, and broadcaster "Frank and perceptive, Goddard draws together a wealth of reflections on Rowan Williams, as well as a remarkable collection of the archbishop's own writings and comments, giving us a deep and fresh insight into Williams' humanity and theology." -- Christina Rees, member of the General Synod, a broadcaster and writer "Rowan Williams' tenure as Archbishop of Canterbury provided the scope for considerable intellect and graciousness during a very demanding decade of spiritual leadership. This biography introduces us more closely to the man behind the ministry." -- Joel Edwards, international director of Micah Challenge "...a clear and honest reflection on [the] character, desires and achievements of Rowan Williams." -- Across the See (Diocese of Norwich)
