Mother Teresa's life and work among the starving and the sick of Calcutta is now known and honoured worldwide. Formal recognition has included the Nobel Peace Prize and, although she is not a British citizen, the Order of Merit.
Through television and the press she has become loved and admired as the embodiment of the best in humanity. In a world where suffering and destruction seem ever more widespread, she gives us hope for the future - all our futures: a standard bearer in the fight against our descent into callous despair.
Yet now, through that very publicity, there is a danger that we might lose sight of the human being behind the inspirational image. Here, in the only full-length biography authorised by Mother Teresa herself, written by a woman who has known, loved and worked with her for many years, is the story of someone who may stand out among humankind but never stands apart from them.
