Reviews
""A marvellous book ... historically and ethnographically well informed, with equally well-informed use of theory - handled with very considerable sensitivity - and lucidly written."" Paul Heelas, author of The New Age Movement and The Spiritual Revolution ""Empathetic in approach and immensely well-documented, this is an exemplary work. Its great importance for akbarian studies is its discussion of the way in which Ibn 'Arabi's teachings have been received and transformed in the modern world."" Michel Chodkiewicz, author of Seal of the Saints and An Ocean Without Shore ""A masterful and multifaceted study. This important book opens out to provide a much-needed critique of the sociology of Islam in the age of globalization."" Victoria Rowe Holbrook, author of The Unreadable Shores of Love and Beauty and Love ""The primary reference work on Beshara will be this thoughtful, intelligent and immensely well-researched book. We can learn a great deal from it."" Peter Young, Principal of the Beshara School of Intensive Esoteric Education
