'This is an excellent book that addresses directly many of the challanges facing Catholic educators and leaders of Catholic educational systems and schools in a number of countries.''Grace offers Catholic educators and leaders valuable insights from the literature andfrom his own research on how to meet the challenges and contribute to the common good and "to renew the culture of the sacred in a profane and secular world".''...the author should be commended for the originality of research and the depth and insightfulness of analysis and interpretations.' - all Patrick Duigan, Catholic Education, September 2005
