Eckhart's Way (Way of the Christian Mystics)

Explores the life, teaching and influence of the great German Dominican mystic, Meister Eckhart, the greatest preacher of his time. Now recognized as both orthodox and the creative source of a stream of mystical theology and spirituality that enlivened Europe for centuries, Eckhart remains one of the most controversial figures of the Middle Ages. Richard Woods is a Dominican priest who has taught in universities for thirty-seven years in both the United States and England. He also edited a journal of spirituality (Spirituality Today) and has been Adjunct Associate Professor in Psychiatry at Loyola University Medical School in Chicago since 1981.
