With increasing insistence and ever harsher denunciations - aimed at stirring consciences and exhorting them to renew hearts - Pope Francis continues with a lively pace his journey of proclaiming the Gospel, his mission of reforming the Church and, at the same time, his effort to change the direction of this world that safeguards neither the life nor the dignity of man.

Attentive to the living conditions of each person, especially the poorest, Pope Francis conveys in this work a powerful message of hope. In fact, his teachings, reflections and meditations interact ever more, and constantly, with his social discourse on development or on (as he likes to say) an ecology for man in which the thirst for possession, despotic selfishness, destructive calculation, the paradox of abundance that provokes hunger and exploitation, have less and less room, and in which, on the other hand, the culture of responsibility and respect, of dialogue and encounter, of welcome and solidarity, have more room. The proclamation of the Gospel is thus linked to the plan of a Christian humanism which, in witnessing to the new life that is born in meeting and following Jesus, is active in every way to make people feel how, in the Church - "mother without limits and without boundaries," as the Pope said (November 21, 2014) - each one contributes his or her own stone to the building of what Blessed Paul VI called the "civilization of love.

A book that contains all the particular teachings dear to Pope Francis, and which is also a strong denunciation of the many evils of today's civilization.
