Post-Holocaust Dialogues: Critical Studies in Modern Jewish Thought - Softcover
Charging that may widely held opinions found in the body of modern Jewish philosophy are inadequate if not false, Katz attempts a reconstruction of these beliefs into a more compelling and tightly composed account of Jewish thought. The book addresses a number of particularly significant topics relating Jewry, with essyas on Martin Buber, Eliezer Berkovits, Richard Rubenstein, Emil Fackenheim, and Ignaz Maybaum.
A significant review of Jewish philosophical foundations by one of today's most dynamic and important scholars of Judaism.

Review:
"The Global Expansion of Judicial Power, so ably and perceptively compiled and edited, is a welcome addition indeed. It assesses and analyses trenchantly and sophisticatedly a cascading development that is as significant and fascinating as it is controversial and durational. A major contribution."-Henry J. Abraham, James Hart Professor of Government and Foreign Affairs, University of Virginia
"Full of fascinating material on many aspects of the intersection of politics and law. . . . The contributions achieve a laudable consistency of quality and readability. . . . [A] real asset for the insight it provides into the configurations and interplay of judicial and other institutions in 14 diverse societies.-"The Law and Politics Book Review",
"An enormously rich and varied collection of essays. . . . must' reading for current students of the judicial process."-Harry P. Stumpf, University of New Mexico
"A benchmark for future study in a growing field of political inquiry."-"Choice",
