Definite shift in the Catholic Church's understanding of marriage took place at Vatican Council II. Rather than perceiving marriage as a contract whose primary purpose was the procreation of children, the council spoke of marriage as an intimate partnership of life and love. In this book seven theologians who have lectured and written extensively on marriage probe the rich theology of marriage and family that emererged from Vatican II and explore some of the implications that flow from this theology.
