[T]he commentary is outstanding.Emmanuel [T]his durable, convenient volume should be in every rectory; it would also serve well as a textbook in every seminary. Don't leave home without it.Parish Liturgy The commentary brings to light the current norms for Eucharistic celebrations. All those interested and involved in liturgy will one day own this resource. It successfully demonstrates that the GIRM is more than rubrics. In fact, it lays out a theology for worship--worship that is intended to transform hearts and make us more in the likeness of God.Pastoral Liturgy This book is a major systematic liturgical and theological commentary on the text itself of the General Instruction. It significantly raises the awareness of the reader and worshippers in general to this underrated yet central liturgical text. Further it brings out the complexity inherent in the GIRM, while the various appraisals given provide avenues for further development and refinement. The Catholic liturgists and theologians of the North American Academy of Liturgy have provided bishops with a key text in their Episcopal duty 'to foster the spirit of the sacred liturgy' (GIRM 387).The Australasian Catholic Record This is a reference book that contemporary and future generations will need in order to understand the General Instruction as well as its implementation. It is a landmark achievement by some of the best Catholic liturgical minds of our day.Pastoral Music This valuable book is the most complete commentary available and will probably not be superseded for years. It should be read and studied by every priest, seminarian, liturgist, liturgy committee, and anyone else interested in celebrating the Eucharist properly.Catholic Books Review
