This is a handy and beautifully-produced manual of the so-called simple cautions and points of light and love of the world's most celebrated mystic, arranged not only for religious but for all lay-people who are eager to discover the ascending paths to the mystical mount of Carmel, whereby they may reach peace of spirit and the true intimacy of divine love. In a finely judged introduction, Thomas Merton shows how these powerful sayings, at once hard and luminous, reveal the essential ascetic doctrine of the Carmelite Doctor.
