520    "This is the first comprehensive study of the intellectual
       and spiritual message of world-renowned philosopher 
       Frithjof Schuon (1907-1998), the foremost spokesman of the
       "Perennialist" or "Traditionalist" school of comparative 
       religious thought. Intended primarily as an introductory 
       guide to Schuon's writings, Harry Oldmeadow's book focuses
       on Schuon's exposition of metaphysics and the 
       "transcendent unity of religions," his presentation of the
       religious traditions of East and West (including the 
       spiritual heritage of the American Indians), his criticism
       of the modern world, and his views on sacred art and 
       beauty. Also included is an overview of Schuon's paintings
       and poetry, as well as his insights on prayer and virtue 
       in the spiritual life. This ground-breaking work provides 
       the general reader with a coherent and systematic account 
       of the Perennial Philosophy and covers all aspects of 
       Schuon's work."--Publisher's website.
