Meer over het boek

Exploring the dynamic landscape of 21st-century religion, this collection of essays examines how spiritual practices, particularly within the Jewish mystical tradition and Habad Hasidism, challenge traditional divides between the old and new, and religion and secularism. The authors, notable scholars, advocate for a radical interdisciplinarity that integrates indigenous Hasidic perspectives, addressing contemporary cultural and scientific crises. This work emphasizes the transformative power of lived religion and its relevance in today's society.
