Book
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Library sticker on front cover; ink stamps to endpapers, including withdrawn stamp; spine label and shelf number to spine. No dust jacket. All pages free from notes or highlighting. Bindings solid and secure, spine intact. A presentable used copy without major flaws. Publisher's note: "The Legacy of Israel deals with the contribution that has come to the sum of human thought from Judaism and from the Jewish view of the world. It is not in any sense either a history of the Jewish people or an exposition of Judaism, and it is concerned with these topics only in so far as discussion of them may be necessary for the clear setting forth of the proper theme of the volume. It is a companion to the Legacy of Greece and The Legacy of Rome."--Excerpted from Preface, page [v], by E.R.B.; C.S Size: 19.5 x 13.2 x 3.7 cm. xxxix, 551 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo.
