Description

The present book explores contemporary Jewish thinkers who have adopted the dialectical approach, an integrated approach towards the tension reason and religion. Some of these thinkers maintain that the tension can be mended. Others think that the dialectic is inherently irresolvable, a view reminiscent of the medieval "dual truth" approach.

Reviews

"In his fascinating two-part series Between Religion and Reason, Dr. Ephraim Chamiel has written a mesmerizing work that details the never-ending tension between science and reason on one side and revelation and religion on the other. (...) Chamiel should be commended for putting this extraordinary work together. This is a brilliant survey of some of the brightest philosophical minds of the last 100 years. While this is an extremely challenging and profound book, it is also quite intellectually rewarding."

- Ben Rothke, The Jewish Link
