If Pope John Paul II's theology of the body is a "theological time bomb set to go off" (George Weigel), this book lights the fuse. Christopher West unpacks the pope's profound teachings and translates them into accessible language, making it an ideal companion to the original text. For the first time, readers have a comprehensive commentary that follows the complete series of general audiences in an engaging manner. Both scholars and general readers will find this commentary rewarding. George Weigel notes the need for such explication for those outside specialized fields, praising West for his intellectual care and practical experience as a teacher and family man. West's work makes the theology of the body accessible to a broad audience. As a research fellow and faculty member of the Theology of the Body Institute, Christopher West is a highly sought-after speaker, having delivered over 1000 lectures across four continents and in numerous countries and cities. His books—Good News About Sex & Marriage, Theology of the Body Explained, and Theology of the Body for Beginners—are Catholic bestsellers. He has also lectured at prestigious institutions, offering graduate and undergraduate courses at various seminaries and universities, reaching hundreds of thousands through national radio.
