Abstract
From Library Journal
The Religious Society of Friends has enjoyed a fame and influence rather out of proportion to its size, and it does not pour forth publications so almost any book issued under its sign is worthy of attention, not least this charming, moving, characteristically brief book. The authors, friends, and Friends since the 1950s produced this book over about three years as an exchange of meditations rather as one might exchange letters and the result is a familiar, accessible, and surprisingly unified reflection on the Quaker ideals of peace, humility, and deep attentiveness to what is called here the Divine Presence. Highly recommended, both for Friends and for those curious about the practice of the Society.
