Review Quotes: "A complex study highlighting a topic that was rarely visited by recent scholars working on spirituality, Andrew Prevot's Mysticism of Ordinary Life, ...is a contribution that should stimulate reading, analysis and debate for every researcher in the field of spirituality." -- Iuliu-Marius Morariu, The Recensiones
"Certainly where the question of mystical theology is concerned, it is rather rare that a study as fundamental and profound as the one that Prevot now presents to the scientific community sees the light of day. The book therefore also belongs to the category of groundbreaking studies that not only presents a discipline - especially that of mystical theology - with new challenges, but in part already takes up these challenges itself and offers new perspectives to articulate the contemporary task of mystical theology." -- Andrew Prevot, Ph.D."The book makes a significant contribution to the theological study of Christian mysticism and its intersection with contemporary feminist thought, which is a conversation which will hopefully have several more chapters." -- Amy Maxey, Theological Studies 86
