Embraced by celebrities from Madonna to Jeff Goldblum to Elizabeth Taylor, covered extensively in the pages of ''Time'' and ''Entertainment Weekly,'' Kabbalah--a Jewish mystical tradition dating back centuries--has taken its place alongside Buddhism as a spiritual practice for modern Western seekers. This book--written by the rabbi who authored the bestselling audiotape series ''The Mystical Kabbalah'' --is the first to bring Kabbalah to a wide audience. Earning great praise from critics, ''God Is a Verb'' promises to do for Judaism what ''The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying'' did for Buddhism, infusing an ancient tradition with new life and popularizing its ideas among an entirely new generation.
