I read this after reading translations of Proclus' commentaries on the First Alcibiades and the Parmenides, his surviving hymns, and the Elements of Theology, so I'm nowhere near well-read across Proclus' surviving works — however, even not being prepared to understand all of the essays in this book due to not having read the Platonic Theology or Timaeus commentary, this was a useful read for orienting oneself. The essays are all from a polytheistic perspective, which is still somewhat uncommon in modern academia despite being the default theological position of the Platonists themselves.
Very worthwhile!
