This humorous catechism will help Lapsed or wobbly Catholic readers deal with their residual guilt and continuing spiritual needs, even if they have fallen away from the One True Faith. It makes a perfect stocking suffer or birthday gift. It is an irreverent, satirical, and richly informed poke in the ribs to the Catholic Church. Good will to all! Advance Hallelujahs! for The Lapsed Catholic Catechism: "Many will be amused; some will be offended; all will learn a lot." -- Henry Rosovsky, Dean Emeritus of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Harvard University "An absolutely delightful book that we lapsed Catholics desperately needed. Ford delivers not just wit, but humorous and cogent insight into our confusing religion. There is nothing that delivers guilt relief faster than a chuckle. And once again, after reading this engaging book, I have some hope I can attain heaven … if it exists, that is. " -- Richard Muller, Professor of Physics at UC Berkeley; author, "The Sins of Jesus"

Daniel Ford grew up in Boston. He attended Holy Name Grammar School and Catholic Memorial High School, where a guidance counselor cautioned that if he went to Harvard, from which he graduated in 1970, he risked losing his faith. He lived for many years in Paris, where he attended organ concerts now and again at the Cathedral of Notre Dame and occasionally lit a candle, just for the heck of it, in memory of his parents. He has written extensively for The New Yorker and is the author of six books.
