"Mark's book constitutes a very significant contribution to our understanding of Nahman's world. It not only goes a long way in balancing the rather one-sided picture painted by earlier scholars, but also provides a very penetrating analysis of the major foundations of Nahman's faith and practice." The Jerusalem Post, February 2010. See the full review at http://www.jpost.com/ArtsAndCulture/Books/Article.aspx?id=167802
