Reviews

'a book that not only succeeds eminently in satisfying a general educational purpose but is also innovative and enriching in the approach it adopts and in the insight it provides... this book represents an outstanding attempt to illustrate and explain the creation and evolution of those categories in a way which is accessible to the non-specialist reader. The researcher who is not fluent in Hebrew will find the bibliographies at the end of each chapter
extremely useful.'
`This volume should find its place in introductory classes on Jewish law.'
