Description

The Guide for the Perplexed by Moses Maimonides is a seminal work that reconciles religious beliefs with philosophical thought. Written in the 12th century, this influential text seeks to find common ground between the Old Testament and Aristotelian philosophy. Maimonides' masterpiece examines various approaches to reconciling religion and philosophy, including those of Muslim rationalists, before proposing his own resolution. This work has had a profound impact on Jewish, Christian, and Muslim thought in the Middle Ages, making it essential reading for understanding the thought of scholastics like Aquinas and Scotus. As one of the greatest philosophical works of all time, The Guide for the Perplexed offers valuable insights into the larger problems that Maimonides discusses. This complete, unabridged text is a necessary resource for anyone interested in medieval philosophy, Judaism, or the Middle Ages.
