"(T. M. Rudavsky) interpretations are excellent summaries of the master's teachings and readers can gain much information and thought-provoking ideas from reading it." -- The Jewish Eye, April 2010
"...I finish by noting that [this book] is aimed both at scholars in the field and at students, and also at those with no knowledge of Maimonides. All these groups will find it useful for different reasons. It will make an excellent first port of call for students looking for a serious way into Maimonides studies, and also for scholars in related fields, who will find a comprehensive account of the immense and daunting secondary literature, and of the questions discussed therein. Scholars of Maimonides will benefit from the philosophical clarity and the range of sources that Rudavsky brings to many of the discussions. She has done a good job of emulating Maimonides' own success in speaking to different audiences in a single book." (Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, 16 November 2011)
"In recent years there has been an outpouring of books on Maimonides. This is the best one as far as his philosophy is concerned. Readers will enjoy [Rudavsky's] presentation of the cut and thrust of debate at the time, and the ways it has been continued right up to today, and there is much to learn from this book. Anyone looking for a text to use in the classroom which will engage students on Maimonides' philosophy need look no further since here it is." (Journal of Jewish Studies, 1 March 2011)
