Lobaczewski's approach analyzes the common factors that lead to the propagation of man's inhumanity to man... The original manuscript of this book went into the furnace minutes before a secret police raid in Communist Poland. The second copy was sent via courier to the Vatican.

Zbigniew Brzezinski blocked its publication. After half a century of suppression, this book is finally available." - from back cover. Book

"La vocazione a seguire più perfettamente il nostro Maestro e Redentore nella vita e nel ministero sacerdotale tocca anche molto da vicino quel nesso tra Ordine e celibato che, già da secoli compreso dalla Chiesa, è rimasto fino ai nostri tempi, e deve rimanere, un principio in vigore. Se infatti, in forza della sua vocazione, ogni sacerdote diventa partecipe di Cristo, lo diventa allora anche della verginità del medesimo Cristo, non meno che della sua obbedienza e povertà".
