"Kabbala" is an introductory review of the history and traditional uses of the three major versions of the Jewish, Christian, and Hermetic Qabalah. It includes an in-depth study of the components of the three forms of the Tree, the Geronese or Jewish Tree. Kircher's Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge, or what is often called the Left-Hand Path Tree. The major components include the study of the 10 Sephiroth, the various uses and presentation of the 32 Paths, the Tarot cards associated with the Paths and the Hebrew Letters and their meanings as it pertains to the Kabbalah. Other topics include the historic teachers and reformers of the Trees, and the many major organizations that center their teachings around the Tree from the Golden Dawn to The Dragon Rouge.

The single most comprehensive volume on Kabbalah Traditions
Highly recommend. I've never written a book review here before but the nature of this particular volume impressed me so much that I had to praise it publicly. I've been studying this subject extensively and have not come accross a more concise and informative book than this.

Worth the read
Great informational book, provides a nice basic coverage of the history, really good intro book. Though, there are quite a few typos which I find distracting... (I am not speaking to the translations as those can always come out a little weird)

Not for beginners
Learn traditional kabbala first. The book is tainted. This can easily confuse someone who isn't already knowledgeable, and could cause the person to become reckless. Also, the cover is printed on glossy cardstock. The image looks washed out and faded. The graphic online makes it look foil gilt. It is not. Overall I'm not loving it.
