This is the English translation of the Italian original, Cristo compagnia di Dio all’uomo, published in 2014. Luigi Giussani (1922-2005) is best known as the founder of Comunione e Liberazione (Communion and Liberation), one of the “new movements” which have much influenced the Catholic church in recent times. The origin
and early development of this lay movement (as it is described) were in Italy but today it reaches out to many countries around the world.
