I'll definately be reading the other two books by the author. Nothing earthshaking, but an excellent overview of some basic principles of right living as expressed by Benedict.

My mother-in-law loaned me this title, knowing that I liked contemplative stuff, and I had it as bedside reading for quite a while, but it was just too dry for me right now. I never wanted to pick it up. So I'm letting it go.
