Reviews

There is one thing that everyone--not just scholars, but informed members of the Jewish community--knows about Rosenzweig, and that one thing is false. Nobody who is interested in twentieth-century Jewish thought, whether from a Jewish, Christian, atheistic, or neutral perspective, will be able to afford to ignore this book. --Paul Franks, Yale University--Paul Franks, Yale University
