Recensione
The Order of Malta today continues its 900-year-old tradition of caring for the poor and the sick. So that our work can be better understood, we have launched a new book project which I believe will greatly enhance understanding of the word of the Order within the wider world community. I will personally be supporting this very worthwhile project. --Fra' Matthew Festing, The Grand Master
... handsome and eloquent ... a thoroughly worthy portrait of the unceasing efforts of a vast and unique organisation. --The Tablet
Product Description
Tracing its origins to the 11th century, the Sovereign Military Order of Malta can look back over a history of fortitude in the face of challenge, of courage in battle, of compassion for those in need. Today, the Order is one of the world's most effective humanitarian organisations, with 12,500 members, 80,000 permanent volunteers, and over 20,000 medical personnel, including doctors, nurses, auxiliaries and paramedics. Themes and topics will include: the history of the Order (with a timeline), the work of the Order's associations round the world, the work of its international aid agency Malteser International, volunteers and youth associations, the Order's spirituality and the Order as a sovereign state. The book includes testaments from individual members about their involvement with the Order and its work and highlights both the spiritual and the practical aspects of its importance to the thousands of people worldwide who are part of it, whether as knights and dames, as volunteers or as recipients of its humanitarian aid. Special photography by Julian Andrews - one of the UK leading photographers, the winner of several international awards.
