520 | |a This is a clear, at times beautifully written series of reflections on traditions of ‘sceptical mysticism’ within both Western and eastern religious, literary, and philosophical traditions.

It would be an excellent book to offer to students or those seeking an introduction to the practice and literature of mysticism. | ||
