This review is from: The Books of Contemplation: Medieval Jewish Mystical Sources (S U N Y Series in Judaica) (Hardcover)
This book concentrates on the views of the Iyyun Circle. This group of Kabbalists is mentioned briefly by other authors (e.g. Gershom Scholem). This book provides far more information on the circle and on their views. It's still not deep enough IMHO, and probably is worth 3.5 stars. But, since I haven't found a better book on this topic, I rounded it up to 4. The Iyyun Circle certainly has an important place in the history of Kabbalah though it wasn't Safed. This is a mid-level type Kabbalah book, IMO--far more important than the many introductory books on the market, but it is more specialized.
