      Dernière Révélation en date, l'Islam affirme être un retour à la religion primordiale. Il constitue par ailleurs un pont entre l'Orient et l'Occident. On comprend la portée du soufisme - la forme qu'a prise la mystique en Islam - qui se définit comme une "saveur", et dont le but est la connaissance directe des vérités divines. Ce livre, inédit en français, présente son histoire millénaire et son actualité, son originalité et son universalité, son but et sa méthode, dans leur ampleur et dans leur pureté.
