Download or read book Critical Guide to Catholic Reference Books written by James Patrick McCabe and published by Littleton, Company : Libraries Unlimited. This book was released on 1980 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **** New edition of a 1980 reference cited in Sheehy. The 1500 annotated entries are grouped into five chapters: general reference works, theology, humanities, social sciences, and history. The books listed include those dealing with topics peculiar to the church, such as liturgy and theological disciplines; and those dealing with the social sciences, literature, the arts, and similar subjects to which Catholics have traditionally contributed a unique perspective. Catholic authorship alone is not enough to justify the inclusion of a reference work; the contents or point of view must relate in some way to Catholicism. Periodicals are only included if they are of a bibliographic nature or if they publish annual bibliographies. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
