This is a life changing book
Eventually, your spiritual path will require this book, and its not one to skim over. I've had my copy for a little under a week and almost every page has highlighter in it.

A Very Worthwhile Read
I've read that this book, the Sefer Yetzirah could have been written by Abraham himself. It is interesting and spiritual. A interpretation from the original text (probably in Hebrew). The book is mystical. Within the Sefer Yetzirah, even the ritual creation of a Golem is documented. I wonder about the history of this book. Who wrote it and what powers does it have? I recommend reading this book if you are interested in learning about one mystical faucet of Judaism. There are definitely gems to be discovered within this book, such as the prominence of numbers infused with letters. The Sefer Yetzirah gives a slight glimpse into the science of G-d, and his, or her, cosmic beyondness.

Worth the higher price
Well, this is an enjoyable book. I have not finished it yet. I picked this book for its good reviews, despite its high price for a Kindle book. This time, it was worth it. I also found it highly recommended by Eric Yudelove's book on the Tao and the (Kabbalah) Tree of Life. The interesting thing is that Kaplan has managed to make a readable book out of what is so often obscure. It seems that the author has an affection for the Sefer Yetzirah and seems as if he had fun writing about it. I have learned a lot about the Kabbalah from this book, not my first on the Kabbalah, but the subject seems as deep and only a little less obscure than before. One of my main questions at this point is about the absolutely essential idea that God created the universe and everything in it by sayings and that these sayings were words and the words were made of letters. In today's thought, much less credence seems to be given to the verbal mind, the mind that deals with concepts and words. I was always before believing that the non-verbal mind was greater and vaster than the verbal part. Yet, here is the big guy at the time before time, before space, and before anything using, wait for it, words. Go figure. Must have something to do with being the big guy. Maybe the rules are different at his pay grade? Fascinating.

The foundational work of Lurianic Kabbalah. This edition is excellent and includes many helpful explanations. Many little nuggets of esoteric secrets behind the Torah are here to gather. Nice diagrams and charts as well. Overall an excellent book for anyone delving into the secrets of the Torah.

Ce livre présente précisément la pensée hébraïque dans ses rapports aux mathématiques, à l'expérience méditative, à la langue et ses multiples symboles. Le style est simple et rend accessible les notions les plus complexes par des explications claires.
