"Alexia Kelley and Chris Korzen brilliantly bring alive the Common Good tradition not only because they understand it from the inside out, but also because they are deeply informed by their own efforts to do the hard work of justice. A Nation for All is a wise book that reminds Catholics of the astonishing relevance of their church's social teaching and offers Catholics and non-Catholics alike a genuinely fresh approach to healing the politics of division."
--E.J. Dionne Jr., senior fellow at Brookings Institution; University Professor of Public Policy at Georgetown University; and author, Souled Out: Reclaiming Faith and Politics After the Religious Right
"In the divided state of American politics, an agenda of 'the common good' presents a clear and compelling vision for our future. With its history of the Catholic social tradition and its public policy ideas for today, A Nation for All persuasively offers that vision. I am an evangelical convert to Catholic social teaching, and this book by Korzen and Kelley is one of the best presentations I've seen. This book should be read by everyone seeking a society that works for the benefit of all of us, not just some of us."
--Jim Wallis, author, The Great Awakening, and president, Sojourners
"While this book is guided by deeply Catholic principles, Americans of all faith traditions will draw inspiration from its powerful call: to build a culture, economy, and politics in which everyone, rich and poor, has a place at the table, and everyone has a voice."
--Sr. Helen Prejean, C.S.J., author, Dead Man Walking and Death of Innocents
"This book effectively challenges the politics of division by encouraging a creative commitment to the tradition of Catholic social thought."
--William J. Byron, S.J., past president, University of Scranton and the Catholic University of America, and author, Individuarian Observations: Essays in Catholic Social Reflection
