Jewish Mysticism: The Ultimate Guide to Understanding Kabbalah, Merkabah Mysticism, and Ashkenazi Hasidism (Jewish Spirituality) by Mari Silva is actually one of the better introductions to Kabbalah I have read. Given the author’s (seemingly other) New Age type works, this book is surprisingly scholarly in a popular and comprehensible way. Except for the somewhat long digression about fundamentalist religions (I suppose this was written post-911) this is an excellent book to ground your Jewish mysticism.
