Review :
"This is a captivating story of the development of Bede Griffiths's thought. Trapnell does a superlative job of showing the interplay of the variety of cultures, traditions and experiences which eventually brought Griffiths to see and experience religions as complementary rather than in tension or competition with each other." - Ronald Neufeldt, University of Calgary "This is an excellent study of Bede Griffiths, probably the best available work on this important 'bridge' figure between India and the West, the Hindu and Christian traditions. Although other books have been written about Griffiths, including full biographies, this book is superior in its intellectual grasp, focus, and grappling with the enduring issues related to Griffiths as a significant figure." - Francis X. Clooney, S.J., author of Theory After Vedanta: An Experiment in Comparative Theology
