Catechism Of The Catholic Church
A catechism is the name given to a written work that contains a summary of all the beliefs of the faith that is used as a teaching tool.  In 1985, at a synod of bishops in Rome convened to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the conclusion of the Second Vatican Council, a proposal to develop a universal catechism for the Catholic Church was made and accepted.  The outcome was the Catechism of the Catholic Church, first published in 1992.  A new edition with some modifications was released in 1977.
