About the Book

This major new edition of Rupert Shortt's acclaimed biography of Rowan Williams provides fresh insight into the life and thought of perhaps the most gifted Christian leader of our time. Unburdened by national office, the former Archbishop has spoken more candidly than ever about the multiple conflicts - over gay clergy, women bishops and the place of faith in the public square - that rocked the Anglican Church and wider society during his decade at the helm.

About the Author :
Rupert Shortt is Religion Editor of The Times Literary Supplement and he has written for a variety of other publications, including the Daily Telegraph, The Times, the Financial Times and the Guardian.

Review :
This excellent biography of the Primate of all England is theologically heavyweight, psychologically perceptive and sometimes strikingly critical. - The Sunday Times There is something refreshingly timeless in the well-rounded portrait of Rowan Williams that emerges from these pages. - The Mail on Sunday Fascinating - The Telegraph Sympathetic and balanced - The Times Outstanding - The Guardian Deeply encouraging in terms of insights into this sensitive, intellectual and complex figure - The Times Shortt shows with commendable honesty why it is the world might judge and misunderstand, but leaves the reader with the discomfiting suspiscion that Jesus would surely approve - The Times An intriguing new insight into the personal life of an archbishop better known for his liberal views and intellectual agility - The Daily Mail
