This is an important book for all those who have been seduced into accepting the claim that often re-appears in the history of mysticism, namely that there are no Protestant mystics. The clarity of her focus and her in-depth use of empirical data make this book an important contribution to the continuing interest in mysticism both within and outside of religious traditions.
