Reviews

Athens and Jerusalem is something of a philosophical tour de force. In a time when our thought tends to be as fragmented as it is specialized, it holds promise of reviving a more wholesome and robust debate about the nature of things. Professor Novak handles his subject in sophisticated fashion, engaging both primary and secondary sources on the level of a master, while providing his readers a broad education in 'the hermeneutics of Nature.' - Douglas Farrow, School of Religious Studies, McGill University The erudition of the volume is extremely impressive, with David Novak demonstrating a magisterial grasp of the primary texts. - Tom Angier, Department of Philosophy, University of Cape Town
