This anthology of Nouwen's teaching covers all his major themes - God, love, life, death, psychology, woundedness, healing, and social action - and is drawn from among his more than forty books. It also includes an excellent overview of Henri's life. Jonas offers a compelling and compact introduction to "one of the world's great spiritual writers." (Christianity Today)
