In Sacred Space, Benjamin Z. Kedar and R. J. Zwi Werblowsky have compiled a wide-ranging collection of essays exploring a broad array of ancient and contemporary holy places. The book reviews sacred spaces of the ancient religions - Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Indian and East-Asian religions - and discusses how these spaces have been conceptualized and experienced. Sacred Space provides readers with original and illuminating examples of the myriad ways in which we perceive and construct sacred space.
