Jewish Philosophers by Steven T. Katz

Among those included are the Rabbinical philosophers, the Hellenistic Jewish personalities, Philo, Saadiah Gaon, the Karaites, Ibn Gabirol, Ibn Paquda, Judah Halevi, Maimonides, Abrabanel, Spinoza, Mendelssohn, Hirsch, Krochmal, Luzzato, Hermann Cohen, Leo Baeck, Abraham Isaac Kook, Franz Rosenzweig, Mordecai Kaplan, and others. As the editor explains in his introduction, this volume will give the reader "a broad, intelligible, yet reasonably detailed conspectus of the results of the show more dialectic between Judaism and philosophy which has produced the hybrid known as Jewish Philosophy."
