Shekhina: Photographs by Leonard Nimoy-Autographed !!! Collectible, signed

Description: First-ever monograph by Leonard Nimoy revealing his intrigue with scriptual mythology and ancient spirituality. Autographed by Star Trek's Spock himself in 2008. The book's title comes from the feminine Hebrew work Shekhinah, meaning the glory or radiance of God, or God's presence. Shekhina is a book of photgraphy by Leonard Nimoy representing the feminine side of Jewish divinity as visualized via the imagery of women, with commentary on Jewish tradition and scripture provided by David Kuspit. The book received a certain amount of controversy for the perceived risque nature of a number of the photographs with his use of nude and partly clad women donning a tallit and tefillin, Jewish prayer accessories traditionally worn by men.
