This is one of a new series of elegantly designed books that seek to re-introduce the words of the wise from all traditions who have searched deeply into true understanding of ourselves and the meaning of life. 'On Union with God' by Albert the Great (Albertus Magnus) 1206-1280 is one of the classics of medieval Christian mysticism. In it Albert made a distinction between truths which are naturally knowable and mysteries which cannot be known without revelation. This edition which has been out of print for many years includes a wide variety of illustrations.
