This book is an exploration of a metaphysical scheme known as the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, built on ancient, medieval, and modern views of its principles.

The structure and dynamics of existence are described in great detail, for example in the context of economics, intersex love, and evolutionary progression. Such examples show the operation of cosmic laws within the four interpenetrating worlds of Jacob's Ladder. Within the context of this scheme, the purpose of humanity is explained in terms of different levels of physical, psychological, and spiritual development.

We are part of the interactions of matter, forms, and creation within a colossal process, the initial impulse of which was given in the Divine realm.
