| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Roman Catholic faith acknowledges over 10,000 saints or beatified figures, this book serves as an introduction to the most commonly encountered and most important saints in Christianity including John the Evangelist, John the Baptist and Saint Sebastian. It also discusses the process of canonization and a selection of high profile cases, including Mother Teresa and Junipero Serra, which are currently pending. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
