MAIMONIDES(ISBN=) 英文原版

　　Sherwin B. Nuland—best-selling author of How We Die—focuses
his surgeon’s eye and writer’s pen on this greatest of rabbis, most
intriguing of Jewish philosophers, and most honored of Jewish
doctors.

　　Moses Maimonides was a Renaissance man before there was a
Renaissance: a great physician, a dazzling Torah scholar, a daring
philosopher. Eight hundred years after his death, his notions about
God, faith, the afterlife, and the Messiah still stir debate; his
life as a physician still inspires; and the enigmas of his
character still fascinate. Nuland’s portrait of Maimonides that
makes his life, his times, and his thought accessible to the
general reader as they have never been before.

　　Sherwin B. Nuland, M.D., is the author of ten previous books,
including How We Die: Reflections on Life’s Final Chapter which won
the National Book Award. He is a clinical professor of surgery at
Yale University, where he also teaches bioethics and medical
history. He lives with his family in Connecticut.

　　”Will educate and inspire not only people of faith, but all
who seek to lead a life of significance and meaning.”
　　–Dr. Jerome Groopman, author of The Anatomy of Hope

　　”Nuland writes sympathetically, one Jewish doctor considering
this most extraordinary of Jewish doctors . . . His book is a guide
for those perplexed by Maimonides, as well as those ignorant of
him. [It is] a deeply satisfying and humane introduction to the
greatest of Jewish thinkers.”
　　–The New York Times Book Review
