His books include Person and God in a Spanish Valley (Seminar Press, 1972; Princeton University Press, 1989); Visionaries (University of California Press, 1996); and, most recently, Divine Presence in Spain and Western Europe (Central European University Press, 2011). He has been a visiting professor in France, Hungary, and California. He lives in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain.
