Christian Spirituality

The author's exquisite command of the sources, breadth of perspective, depth of sensitivity to historical nuance, together with his clear, often witty, expression, make his latest contribution to the field, in a word, magisterial. This volume is highly recommended not just for experts but for all interested in the history of Christian spirituality—teachers and students at all levels, writers, preachers, as well as the "average” reader. It will undoubtedly prove to be an invaluable source of spiritual enrichment for years to come.—Spirituality Today
