From the preface, “Every Confessor of religious communities, every Pastor should have a little volume like this on his reading table. It is a synopsis of ascetic theology by which he will be enabled to guide and direct pious souls committed to his care to planes of higher perfection.” For those wishing to help themselves and others to strive for perfection this book would be quite helpful in its 5-part teachings.
