This review is from: The Psychology of Sufism (Del Wa Nafs) (Hardcover)

This book consists mostly of a collection of relevant excerpts by other writers. Some good insights are presented, but if you're looking for a textbook-style presentation, this isn't for you. It's also quite expensive for such a small book.
