Dive deeper into Love and Responsibility, the thought-provoking work of Karol Wojtyla (the future Pope Saint John Paul II), with this insightful companion to a rich and challenging text. Wojtyla wrote Love and Responsibility after years of counseling young adults and married couples. This important work offers valuable insights into how we think, behave, and relate to one another, making it a valuable complement to the theology of the body that John Paul II developed further during his pontificate. But the high and theoretical language of Love and Responsibility can make this text difficult to access. In Understanding Love and Responsibility, Dr. Richard Spinello comes to the aid of readers with a clear commentary on the key themes of Love and Responsibility. Discover the beauty of human relationships and our God-given need to give and receive love with this invaluable companion to a classic and deeply relevant work for Christian couples and families today.

"Understanding Love and Responsibility should play a major role in drawing thirsty souls into the mind, heart, and thought of one of civilization's greatest men on the issues of our age. Kudos!"
Damon Owens, Executive Director, Theology of the Body Institute

"If you really want to understand the theology of the body, you need to understand Love and Responsibility. Now you can, even without a philosophy degree!"
Angela Franks, PhD, author of Contraception and Catholicism: What the Church Teaches and Why

"[Richard Spinello's] commentary will help anyone who is looking to absorb the richness of the late Holy Father's thought."
Jason Evert, author of Saint John Paul the Great: His Five Loves

"Dr. Spinello's companion to Love and Responsibility is a winner... Spinello 'undensifies' the often dense work of Papa Wojtyla, enlarging on it and making it even more useful to all."
Sr. Helena Burns, FSP, Theology of the Body speaker, and author of He Speaks to You
