The Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church

By Vladimir Lossky (1944), the most influential modern introduction to Orthodox theology. Presents the distinctiveness of Eastern theology: apophatic approach, essence-energies distinction, the non-juridical understanding of salvation, the personal character of dogma. Essential reading for any student of Orthodoxy.
