Charging that may widely held opinions found in the body of modern Jewish philosophy are inadequate if not false, Katz attempts a reconstruction of these beliefs into a more compelling and tightly composed account of Jewish thought. The book addresses a number of particularly significant topics relating Jewry, with essyas on Martin Buber, Eliezer Berkovits, Richard Rubenstein, Emil Fackenheim, and Ignaz Maybaum. A significant review of Jewish philosophical foundations by one of today's most dynamic and important scholars of Judaism.
