This book provides the reader with an introduction to important philosophical ideas of Jewish philosophers throughout history.

"This new volume in Rabbi Ronald H. Isaacs's "Every Person's Guide to..." series is precisely what the title claims it to be. It describes not philosophy in its narrow meaning but the general principles of Jewish religion as well as some philosophical issues expressed in the religious writings or derived from the theological doctrines. Notable for its inclusiveness, this work starts from biblical philosophical or para-philosophical ideas and continues in chronological order to explicate the main views of Jewish theologian-philosophers through the ages, right up to Emil Fackenheim." - Library Journal, (But Listed On Amazon Reviews)
