The Wisdom of Maimonides

“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, http://jewishbookreview.wordpress.com/
