Reviews
The Origins of the Christian Mystical Tradition [is] a standard resource for students of this topic * M. J Edwards, The Classical Review *
a book on spirituality which is trenchant and without any touch of sentimentality. * Henry Chadwick, TLS *
It is not often that we chance to meet with a book so rich that it would be impossible to discuss it in full without writing another one at least as long. * Louis Bouyer, Sobornost *
It is a great merit in this book that it is ready to talk about dogma and indeed tries to unite, in the spirit of the Fathers, doctrine and spirituality. * Journal of Theological Studies *
splendid survey of patristic spirituality ... Here we find not merely the often-repeated statement that theology and spirituality are inseparable in the Fathers, but a careful demonstration of this. * New Fire *
