This anthology is not intended to replace any of the works of Wilhelm Reich, but rather to serve as an introduction to them. The chapters include material from The Function of the Orgasm; The Cancer Biopathy; Character Analysis; Ether, God and Devil; Cosmic Superimposition and The Murder of Christ. In addition the volume reprints many important later articles from various journals.

This "Stringfellow reader" collects the most significant of William Stringfellow's works--currently all out of print--plus important material not previously published. A thorough bibliography of his writings is appended.
