Despite the fact that the author was thus not able to check the proofs or make any changes to the book's structure, the text is a valuable introduction to the subject. Brock provides an overview of Syriac spirituality, an introduction to the main texts and writers (mostly focusing on those prior to the ninth century), discusses the proto-monastic tradition, as well as baptism and eucharist, before identifying a number of the most prominent themes in the different periods. The volume ends with a small selection of passages from key writers in English translation. Brock, Sebastian P. Spirituality in the Syriac Tradition. Mōrān ’Eth’ō 2.
