Reviews

Rabbi H. Norman Strickman's excellent new study of [the Mishneh Torah] explores Maimonides' views regarding astrology, medicine, the evil eye, amulets, magic, theurgic practices, omens, and communicating with the dead, and evil spirits. . . . The book is a most important contribution to the field. . . . I highly recommend it.

Other scholars have noted how Egyptian Jewish scholar Moses Maimonides presented a strictly rational perspective of Judaism, but Strickman fills in some gaps and offers a new perspective. He characterizes the Mishneh Torah as the greatest code of Jewish law to be composed in the post-Talmudic era.
