"The first book in this series was about "Diabolic Wars". This book tells you about your internal and external spiritual wars, specifically; the war of self, vacuity, forgetfulness, doubt, fear, war of thought, outer appearances, sins of the tongue, cruelty of the heart, spiritual languor, war of sadness, love of praise/honour and violence. It treats the causes, the signs and the remedy for these wars." (His Holiness Pope Shenouda III, Pope and Patriarch of the Coptic Orthodox Church)
