John W. O'Malley gives us the most comprehensive account ever
written of the Society of Jesus in its founding years, one that
heightens and transforms our understanding of the Jesuits in
history and today. Following the Society from 1540 through 1565,
O'Malley shows how this sense of mission evolved. He looks at
everything-the Jesuits' teaching, their preaching, their casuistry,
their work with orphans and prostitutes, their attitudes toward
Jews and "New Christians," and their relationship to the
Reformation. All are taken in by the sweep of O'Malley's story as
he details the Society's manifold activities in Europe, Brazil, and
India.
