Softcover. Condición: Very Good (Used copy). JUDAICA -âEvery once in a while a book appears that is certain to become a classic in its field. The present volume is such a work. It goes well beyond anything that can be reasonably called an Introduction. In fact, it is now the definitive discussion of Maimonidesâ thought, both phi…losophical and halachic (religious law) in English and one of the most important studies of Maimonides in any language.ââChoiceâMaimonidesâ monumental 14-volume code on Jewish law has had a profound influence on Jewish life since the Middle Ages. This lucid study is the first thorough literary-historical study of theÂMishneh Torah. Twersky . analyzes the reasons for the Codeâs composition, its relationship to Maimonidesâ other works, the milieu in which it was written, and illuminates the reasons for its lasting importance.ââLibrary JournalCitation as Winner of the 1980 Kenneth B.
