else. In this splendid and lucid book, his life and teachings are
made accessible to the contemporary reader."—Rabbi Zalman M.
Schachter-Shalomi, author of Jewish with Feeling and Credo of a
Modern Kabbalist
"Hoffman's clear prose and piercing insights into the wisdom of
Maimonides make this book a must-read for anyone interested in
plumbing the depths of one of the greatest religious thinkers of
all time."—Rabbi Niles Elliot Goldstein, author of Gonzo Judaism: A
Bold Path for Renewing an Ancient Faith
"Although there are many books on the Rambam, Dr. Hoffman's volume
makes me feel like I am just beginning to discover the spiritual
wisdom of this great sage. This is a deep and profound
work."—Arthur Kurzweil, author of On the Road with Rabbi
Steinsaltz
"An outstanding book for those being introduced to Maimonides, or
those who want to refresh their memory, and dig a bit deeper into
the life and thought of the greatest Jewish thinker of the Middle
Ages."— Jewish Media Review,
