Critchley argues that mysticism, often neglected in modern philosophy due to its bias towards rational critique, holds significant insights in times of cultural upheaval.
The author's exploration of mysticism is both timely and necessary, reflecting a metaphysical yearning present in contemporary society as people grapple with transformative experiences.
Critchley recognizes a cultural shift towards mystical interest, suggesting that this indicates a broader metaphysical restlessness and a search for the transcendental in modern life.
Despite its limitations, Critchley’s work sheds light on the often overlooked realm of mysticism, primarily focusing on Christian traditions while acknowledging the exclusion of other spiritual paths.
