A large collection of studies (about 500 pages) published by Éditions du Cerf in 1962, on the tasks of priests and lay people in evangelisation and in the life of society. Part of it was translated into English as Priest and Layman (1967), and further material appeared in A Gospel Priesthood and Christians Active in the World.
