Here Peter Morea, a Roman Catholic psychologist, has chosen four different figures from very different times: Julian of Norwich, Catherine of Siena, Therese of Lisieux and Simone Weil. Each has much to say of relevance to the mysteries of personality, human relationships, God and the church. Drawing on the thought of these four women and the resources of psychology, Peter Morea looks at issues such as the psychology of Catholics and their traditions, psychological growth, Catholic patriarchy, the institutional church, and existential selfs and their relation to one another and God.
