Review

"Samuelson's book takes the student on a fascinating tour through the world of Judaism in general and Jewish Philosophy in particular....he succeeds in leading the reader through the ever-changing landscape of Jewish responses to western culture, to its own heritage, and to the philosophies and theologies of the surrounding religions." Dr. Yehoyada Amir, Department of Jewish Thought, Hebrew University, Jerusalem; "One of America's leading Jewish philosophers has written an admirable guide to the history of Jewish philosophical reflection from its Hebraic roots to Franz Rosenzweig. Highly recommended." Professor John Clayton, Chairman, Department of Religion, Boston University"
