Pope Benedict XVI is widely recognized as one of the most brilliant theologians and spiritual leaders of our age. As Pope he authored the best-selling Jesus of Nazareth; and prior to his pontificate, he wrote many influential books that continue to remain important for the contemporary Church, such as Introduction to Christianity and The Spirit of the Liturgy.
"Joseph Ratzinger was a world-class theologian long before he
became the Roman Curia's official defender of Catholic doctrine,
and then the pope. In Jesus of Nazareth, Ratzinger reveals the core
of his personality as he invites his readers into the classroom of
a master teacher-one who has absorbed the best that modern biblical
scholarship has to offer and has yet emerged from that encounter
with his faith intact and enriched."
-George Weigel, Author, Witness to Hope
