Summary: Interesting
Comment: Its very difficult to review a book like this. Personal opinion comes into play more than if I was reviewing a cd or a dvd!

Followers of Kabbalah believe that each of the 72 names of G-d relates specifically to an area of your life. (The names were hidden in code in the Torah). It is said that Hebrew / Aramaic was the orginal language spoken by all of mankind (until the Tower of Babel) and whilst we cannot understand the 'names', our souls recognize the letters. (Kabbalah believes strongly in re-incarnation.) Therefore, by meditating on the names, you soul connects with the 'light' and dependant on the name you 'scanned', depends on the improvement you will make in your life.
This book is essentially a 'tool' to enable you to make the connection.
The book is presented beautifully, more like a fashionable coffee table book than a 'spiritual' tool. Some people will have problems with this, but the reality is, this is the 21st Century, and its no doubt a necesesity~in this day and age. How do you want it presented?
A introduction to Kabbalah is included, an explanation of what you are doing, a description of each letter (one name per page) and what to 'think' about whilst meditating on each letter. (Which is important to me as I have difificulty relaxing my mind and trying not to plan my shopping list whilst trying!)

But.... does it actually work?
Well, I am a student of Kabbalah, and I do scan the letters on a regualr basis. Since doing so, I have certainly become more succesful in work, more positive, and happier. Is it as a direct result of this book? I dont know. Is it a result of Kabbalah - yes, definately. Thats either because it's real, or simply because the tools I have learnt have made me a more positive person, like self-help. (What I believe isn't important here)
Whatever reason YOU think, either way its a good thing. So what have you got to lose!!!

Comment: This book is a must for those truly interested in growing spiritually. It is simply written, and comes from the heart. It offers tools that are easy and simple to use. It is useful to both beginners and people who have been involved in spirituality for a long time. By just meditating on the different names, your whole perception of life changes.

Summary: Faux Kabbalah
Comment: As a student of the Kabbalah, I have seen how the Kabbalah Centre (lead by this book's author) has been distilling Kabbalistic wisdom and selling it to the mass market.
The way in which this books uses the 72 names of God, as described in the Bahir, is little more than a self-help meditation.

THIS IS NOT KABBALAH.

But it may help you if you are looking for just another self help exercise.
