How can we discover the source of wholeness, healing and hope amidst a broken an suffering world? Jean Vanier examines the roots of brokenness within the Jewish and Christian traditions and the meaning of the Good News of Jesus for our Twentieth-century world.

The Broken Body is written for all who wish to follow Jesus on the path to wholenedd. Vanier calls the reader to come closer to people who suffer. He offers hope and encouragement, and tha assurance that prace and joy can be found but only, by first accepting the reality of suffering and the cross in one's own life and in the lives of others.

Jean Vanier is the founder of the worldwide l'Arche communities and faith and Light communities for people with mental handicaps. He writes from more than twenty years' experience of life communitiy with people who suffer the pain of rejection because of their handicap and he draws on this experience in The Broken Body
