Author Biography
Gerald G. May, M.D. (1940-2005), practiced medicine and psychiatry for twenty-five years before becoming a senior fellow in contemplative theology and psychology at the Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation in Bethesda, Maryland. He was the author of many books and articles blending spirituality and psychology, including Addiction and Grace, Care of Mind/Care of Spirit, Will and Spirit, and The Dark Night of the Soul.
Reviews"May's book uses the same title in an attempt to both clarify and amplify St. John of the Cross's original work, and to place it in a modern setting.... A vivid picture of a young man with a deep love for God and brilliant intellect."--Conversations Journal
