The book has been regularly used in seminaries or universities for pastoral courses on the Mass and liturgy. I occasionally find it listed in on-line syllabi for courses. A guidebook of principles and norms to help all involved in worship avoid the common pitfalls that occur in the celebration of the eucharist, updated based on the new Roman Missal.

Dennis Smolarkski's out of print and hard to find "liturgical literacy" aims to form a basic vocabulary of knowledge for Christian worship. Includes over 650 terms, popular and scholarly, old and new. Helpful in the study of the liturgy, excellent for understanding -- an aid against the present cultural maladies.
