In this powerful book, Fr. Gabriele Amorth, the renowned chief exorcist of Rome, tells of his many experiences in his ministry as an exorcist doing battle with Satan to relieve the great suffering of many people in the grip of evil.  The importance of the ministry to "expel demons" is clearly seen in the Gospels, from the actions of the Apostles, and from Church history. 

In this book, Father Amorth allows the reader to witness the activities of the exorcist, to experience what an exorcist sees and does.  He shows how real and powerful the devil is, and how his wicked and evil influence is so prevalent today in many people's lives.  He also reveals how little modern science, psychology and medicine can do to help those under Satan's influence, and that only the power of Christ can release them from their mental, spiritual or physical suffering.

Fr. Gabriele Amorth is the Chief Exorcist of Rome.  He has performed hundreds of exorcisms over many years.  He has written about his experiences in various theological and spiritual journals.

"Fr. Amorth tells us about his personal confrontations with the devil on hundreds of occasions.  Those who deny or doubt the power of the devil will be shocked at what they find in this book." - Fr. Kenneth Baker, S.J. -  Editor, Homiletic and Pastoral Review

    Following up his international best-selling book, An Exorcist Tells His Story, Fr. Gabriele Amorth, the renowned chief exorcist of Rome, expands on some of the key topics of his previous book, covering important details about demonic or occult issues.  He uses concrete examples from his own experiences and those of other exorcists to illustrate and substantiate his points.

     Since satanic sects, occultism, seances, fortune-tellers and astrologers are so widespread today, Father Amorth asks the question why is it so difficult today to find an exorcist, or a priest who is an expert in this field?  The example and the teaching of Christ is very clear, as clear is the tradition of the Church.  But today's Catholics are often misinformed.

     Exorcisms are reserved for appointed priests, while all believers can make prayers of liberation.  What is the difference?  What norms must be followed?  What problems are still open and unresolved in this field?

     The new book by Father Amorth answers these and many other questions, supporting his discourse with a rich exposition of recent facts.  A valuable, practical and instructive manual, for priests and lay people, on how to help many who are suffering.
