Amazing morning at the Vatican, I had the honour of being presented with a book (with a chapter by me) by the editor Monsignor Fabrizio Capella of the Roman Catholic Dicastery of Education and Culture. We stepped out onto his office balcony overlooking St Peter’s Square and the Basilica #academicsky
