In this prizewinning new interpretation of Jewish mysticism, Moshe
Idel emphasizes the need for a comparative and phenomenological
approach to Kabbalah and its position in the history of religion.
Idel provides fresh insights into the origins of Jewish mysticism,
the relation between mystical and historical experience, and the
impact of Jewish mysticism on western civilization. "Idel's book is
studded with major insights, and innovative approaches to the
entire history of Judaism, and mastery of it will be essential for
all serious students of Jewish thought."-Arthur Green, New York
Times Book Review "Moshe Idel's original, scholarly, and
stimulating study of Kabbalah contains the promise of a
masterwork."-Elie Wiesel "Moshe Idel's book can help the
nonspecialized reader to reconsider the whole of Kabbalistic
tradition in comparison with many aspects of contemporary
thought."-Umberto Eco "There can be no dispute about the importance
and originality of Idel's work. Offering a wealth of complementary
insights to Gershom Scholem and his school, it will command a great
deal of attention and serious discussion."-Alexander Altmann
