Recenzje

"A welcome addition to general expositions of Maimonides' thought. Much more than an introduction, this book is a deeply philosophical encounter with some of the major themes of Maimonides' writings, one that is thoroughly conversant with classical and contemporary perspectives. Daniel Davies offers original interpretations of thorny issues, sensible approaches to scholarly disputes, and a steady guide for beginning and advanced readers of Maimonides."Charles Manekin, University of Maryland
