In this book, entitled "Hesychia and Theology: The Context for Man’s Healing in the Orthodox Church", seventeen texts are published which make clear how indispensable for the knowledge of God is the hesychastic and neptic Tradition of the Church, as presented in the writings and teaching of the holy Fathers. Heyschia, as a method and means for healing man’s soul, is the way along which every Christian must inevitably pass to reach communion with God. The knowledge of God, in other words theology, is the fruit of hesychia, and constitutes man’s salvation. The book is de...

The first part of the book contains iconographic illustrations with short titles which make clear the central meaning of the picture. In the second part there are brief explanations which analyse and interpret the illustration in more detail. Thus the book provides a visual catechism...

British Life and Institutions" is meant for the general educated reader who wants to know more about Great Britain, ie her people, their language, their history, their parliamentary system, their legal system etc. and her various institutions. As the big portion of the material deals with the governance of the country, the major institutions and the lines along which they operate and function, more or less smoothly, the book, I believe, will be of considerable value and help to educators, civil servants, parliamentarians, welfare officers, journalists in particular, my mai...

This is the author's first book and has a distinguished place among all his writings because of its wide circulation.

It is an aid to all who wish to practise...
