This book can be purchased used, but the books is usually cheaper on the University website ($29.95). This book is not a section of a larger work such as the Triads but its own composition. It is written as a debate and conversation between a Barlaamite and an Orthodox. The main text is quite small at 45 pages, and this translation includes the original Greek. I recommend this book to anyone interested in St. Gregory Palamas and the Hesychast Controversy but willing to learn some Greek. In this video I cover a lot of the quotes that I found interesting.
