Catholic neighborhoods -- Postwar suburbs -- Gathering in Los Angeles and Rome -- The Council and its decisions -- Uneven acceptance -- Design for change -- A deciding people -- Legacies.;In this illuminating study, religious historian Colleen McDannell presents new insight into Vatican II by shifting the framework of its analysis: from men to women, from urban to suburban, from theory to practice. Using the story of her Catholic mother's life as a narrative thread, McDannell presents in The Spirit of Vatican II a refreshingly positive portrayal of the state of modern Catholicism?and a testament to the lasting effects of its liberalization. --Publisher.
