- Notes
- "[By] Trevor Beeson, Vicar of St. Mary's Parish Church, Ware".
- Includes bibliographical references and index.
- "Based on a long and wide experience of the Church of England ... and a global view encouraged by several years in journalism and broadcasting, Trevor Beeson's analysis leaves few Anglican stones unturned. Here are all the basic facts about membership, finance, relations with the State and other churches, new approaches to worship and church government, together with a penetrating interpretation which draws out their significance for the present and the future. .... He sees the better deployment of local resources as a more positive way forward than the current preoccupation with central church government". -- back cover.
