From City of God by Augustine of Hippo to Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert, a concise guide to 54 spiritual classics. This very readable guide examines a wide range of spiritual writing that can be a source of enjoyment or inspiration, including some books from beyond any formal religious tradition. While written from within the Christian faith and offering introductions to the writings of medieval mystics, Quakers and modern evangelists, both Protestant and Catholic, it also looks at classics of secular spirituality and writings from different religious faiths. Russell shows clearly what each book has to offer and a Speed Read at the end of each entry delivers a quick sense of what each writer is like to read as well as a highly compressed summary of the main points of the title in question.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This very readable brief guide examines a wide range of spiritual writing that can be read for enjoyment or inspiration, including some books that come from beyond any religious tradition. While written from within the Christian tradition, and offering introductions to the writings of medieval mystics, Quakers and modern evangelists, both Protestant and Catholic, it also looks at classics of secular spirituality and writings from different religious traditions.Each book is explained to convey a brief idea of what each one has to offer the interested reader, while a 'Speed Read' for each book delivers a quick sense of what each writer is like to read and a highly compressed summary of the main points of the book in question.This is an excellent reference to dip into, but within sections such as Early Christian Classics, Secular Texts, Lives of Inspiration and Alternative Approaches, the books are arranged chronologically, revealing some interesting juxtapositions and connections between them. A brief introduction to a selection of the world's spiritual classics, from City of God by Augustine of Hippo to Be Here Now by Ram Dass Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
