″During the course of nearly forty years as a priest during which the author has been privileged to meet countless good Catholics and Christians as personal friends, retreatants both relgious and lay, as well as parents and their senior boys, he has always been edified by the obvious and sincere anxiety of so many of them to learn something of the ethos and spirituality of the traditional “Spiritual Exerces of St Ignatius of Loyola”. But these “Exercises” are essentially a system, gradutated and logical, of prayer. The only way really to understnad and appreciate them is actually to “go through” them as such.” (from Preface)
