Description: How well do Catholic schools measure up? Have American Catholics contributed their share to the arts and sciences? Is the censorship mentality a danger to Catholic intellectual growth? Has conformity become the hallmark of American Catholicism? In the provocative book a Catholic professor of sociology provides the frank, often disconcerting, answers and then points the way to a renewal of controversy within the Church and a reawakening of the American Catholic to the rewards of intellectual life.
