All Meister Eckhart is good Meister Eckhart. People are often astonished to discover him: Christianity too once had spiritual teachers whose words soar.
Now the bad news. This little book was first published in 1941. (A Modern Translation. Right.) I'm amazed it's not only still in print but still the easiest book of Eckhart to find.
