About the Author
Reviews
"This is a book that ought to be read by everyone who is seriously interested in Judaism, or, for that matter, in what it means to be a religious person in a pluralistic age."
-Hilary Putnam, Cogan University professor, Harvard University
"This is not just a book for Jews.... Hartman stands in the tradition of Abraham Joshua Heschel as a Jew who can speak to both his own people and to others with equal clarity."
-Harvey Cox, professor of divinity, Harvard University; author, Fire from Heaven
"An extraordinary book, steeped in tradition, devoid of stereotypic thinking; lucid and pertinent, a modern classic."
-Rabbi Harold M. Schulweis, author, For Those Who Can't Believe
"In A Heart of Many Rooms David Hartman has given us that rarest of phenomena, an internal Jewish dialogue between the voices of tradition and modernity, Orthodoxy and Reform, religion and secularity, skepticism and faith. Thoughtful, provocative, imaginative in its reach, generous in its embrace, this is a work to challenge and enlarge us all."
-Professor Jonathan Sacks, chief rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of Britain and the Commonwealth
