Deification penetrates all spheres of human existence, and can be seen as an answer to most pending ultimate questions. It is essentially practical in its manifestation and uplifting in its content, but nevertheless, always evasive and arcane in its comprehension. Aimed both at those who are already students of theosis and at those who are looking for an introductory text.

"... Altogether, the volume represents solid and careful scholarship..." Ashish Varma, Theological book review, Vol. 24, No 2, 2012.'The strength of the collected essays flows out of a shared methodology, which lends an evenness of tone and approach while never comprising the specificities of each thinker of tradition.'Paul Dominiak, Reviews in Religion and Theology, Vol.21, No.1, January 2014 "... These twin volumes are a scintillating gift to Christianity's ongoing revelation in the third millennium. Taste and see that the Lord is good!"Alastair McIntosh, The Expository Times, Volume 126 No 2, November 2014
