I found this to be a very simplistic elaboration on the Catholic sacramental world view. The book is understandably geared toward lay people, but it doesn't include any context around distinctions between the Seven Sacraments and “creation as sacrament.” I bailed on this book to give myself(a confirmed Catholic) an education of the topics the author takes pot shots at; modernist philosophy and Church reformers. Not sure that was his intention.

Valuable as a reference, but not worth reading front to back. Will probably use it as needed when I need to get organized for specific chores and projects.
