What is Religion of Reason: Out of the Sources of Judaism (American Academy of Religion Texts and Translations Series) about?

<p><P>Hermann Cohen's <b>Religion of Reason, Out of the Sources of Judaism</b> (first published in 1919) is widely taken to be the greatest work in Jewish philosophy and religious thought since Maimonides' <b>Guide to the Perplexed</b>. It is at once a Jewish book and a philosophical one&#58; Jewish because it takes its material from the literary tradition that extends from the bible to the rabbis to the great medieval philosophers; philosophical because it studies that material in order to construct a worldview that is rational in the broadest sense of the term. This edition reprints a 1972 introduction by Leo Strauss and includes an essay on the work by Steven Schwarzchild. A new introduction by Kenneth R. Seeskin situates Cohen's masterwork in the history of modern philosophical and religious thought.</p>
