A wide-ranging discussion of mysticism in the great monotheistic world religions, this text features scholars who are internationally renowned. The notion of mystical union with God, of being one with the divine, has seemed scandalous to many Jews, Christians and Muslims; yet in all three faiths the tradition of mystical union is deep and long. Contributions are based upon the broad and expert knowledge of the three related faiths.
