Words of Desmond Tutu
Search in google:
In this collection of more than 100 excerpts chosen by his daughter Naomi from his most memorable speeches, sermons, and writings, archbishop Desmond Tutu discusses issues ranging from faith and social responsibility to nuclear disarmament, the Third World, and women in the church. Library Journal Here are excerpts from Bishop Tutu's speeches, sermons, and writings, nearly half being published for the first time. As his daughter's introduction stresses, themes of faith and community predominate in these passages, which are grouped under such headings as ``Violence and Nonviolence'' or ``Faith and Responsibility.'' The lack of citations may frustrate some readers, but it does give the selections a timeless, transcendent look on the page, and a chronology of Tutu's life and brief bibliography of sources appear at the end. The anthology closes with the Nobel Prize acceptance speech.-- EC
