study of meaning & sources

This is a very remarkable book, full of wisdom, humor and profound insight into the mystery of human sexuality V- -- without any doubt the most challenging book Jean Vanier has written. In a time of great confusion about the meaning of human sexuality Vanier offers a moving and very clarifying vision of the mystery of the truly fruitful life by sharing with us the wisdom he receives through his life with people who are handicapped. There is hardly a better example of God's wisdom revealed to “mere children” than this book, and from the perspective of men and women with handicaps Vanier is able to touch the core of true love. In reading this book I touched again the great mystery of the divine gift of love, offered to us through a deeply wounded humanity. -- Henry Nouwen
