"Throughout this book I will establish connections between the word "back then' and its application to the present situation. What results will be a 'new word" of meaning. This process flows from my Roman Catholic identity. One fo the great strengths of Roman Catholicisim is its effort to uphold at one and at the same time a sense of the past and a sense of the present" (Thomas ix).
