Moses Maimonides: The Man and His Works
A careful, scholarly look at the rise of Hasidism in Poland during the 1700s, a time remarkable for its changes in that country, and subsequently. As always, seeing how political necessity interacted with the Jews is painful, and anyone who has read history of that period is not going to find anything new. What they will find is the Jew's-eye view of various famous and semi-famous Hasidic figures, the charlatans as well as the truly holy leaders. Traces how wisdom from the Baal Shem Tov and Rebbe Nahman of Bretslav, among others, influenced the growing movement within Judaism. Interesting side examinations of Kabbalah and magic as practiced within the community.
