This work, though well done, can best be seen as a good overview and introduction to temple liturgy and symbolism while not being boring. The included illustrations are well done.Mr. Lundquist gives an overview of temple liturgy and thought through a variety of cultures and religions.

A good, and short, overview and introduction to temple thought and history.
