The book is divided into two parts, the first part dealing with the teachings of St. Thomas Aquinas on Christian perfection, and the second part focusing on St. John of the Cross's teachings on contemplation. The author also discusses the role of grace in achieving Christian perfection and contemplation, and provides practical advice on how to attain these states of spiritual development.
