Her book can thus seem to express a "dry" Thomism that falls short of the spiritual and intellectual stature of Thomas himself. It is, however, an important study, well worth the effort of careful reading. This is a careful study if at times a little mechanical, and there are omissions which it is to be hoped the author will fill in future work. But it makes one think, and that makes it a good book.
This book attempts to resolve one of the oldest and bitterest controversies between the Eastern and Western Christian churches: namely, the dispute about the doctrine of deification. A. N. Williams examines two key thinkers, each of whom is championed as the authentic spokesman of his own tradition and reviled by the other. Taking Aquinas as representative of the West and Gregory Palamas for the East, she presents fresh readings of their work that both reinterpret each thinker and show an area of commonality between them much greater than has previously been acknowledged.
