The Training of the Will


Johann Lindworsky - 1932
    Lindworsky penned many scholarly works, but nothing for the average layman until this popular book, designed to put his findings to practical use.But he has a second, vital purpose: to counteract dangerous writings in psychology that were luring Catholics into error. Grounded in sound science and Catholic principles, Fr. Lindworsky's wisdom is as timeless and effective as most modern "self-help" books are faddish and misleading.
