Exactly what I was looking for. The print is clean and easy on the eyes for long sessions. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them. I'd have loved an index, but that's on the original text. Good, with the caveats above.
This has been on my wishlist for months. The text itself is dense but rewarding — you get out what you put in. There's real depth here that reveals itself on a second reading.
I collect works on this subject and this is a worthy addition. Some chapters demand a slow, careful read, and that's exactly the point. My only regret is not ordering it sooner.
