Synopsis:

This newly revised edition of a classic work explores the mystical tradition in Judaism via the author's thoughtful and entertaining search for contemporary insights from the Kabbala, Judaism's "hidden wisdom," and its present-day mystics. In addition to a foreword by Elie Wiesel and an afterword by Adin Stein (author of a much-acclaimed translation of the Talmud), the book offers an introduction to Judaism's mystical tradtion in ten chapters: "He Who Touches Is Touched;" "A Mystic on East Broadway;" "The Accountant;" "Chambers Within Chambers;" "Mysticism for the Masses;" "The Lubavitcher Movement;" "Bratzlav--The Dead Hasidim;" "Exercises in Modern Hasidism;" "The Fragrance of Eden;" "The View from the Root Above;" and "Coda: 'And So?' Twenty Years Later."
