"Ekpo's book is a competent and thorough examination of the currently reformed structures of the Curia in service to the pope and the bishops, and in service to communion and mission. He details the origins of the dicasteries, their internal ordering and their responsibilities." ~ review by John J. Strynkowski in America: The Jesuit Review.
"This study is not meant to provide an exhaustive exploration of the Roman Curia under these aspects. Instead, it is intended to be a helpful resource for teachers, students, and researchers who are interested in knowing how the Roman Curia generally operates..."
"The Papacy comprises numerous offices and sub-organizations, including financial and judicial branches. This guide offers a detailed exploration of the Roman Curia, highlighting its various components and tracing their origins-many of which date back to the Middle Ages."
"While the medieval content is not extensive, this book serves as a valuable resource for anyone studying Catholic ecclesiastical history."
