"Philosophy may be defined as the art of asking the right
questions...Awareness of the problem outlives all solutions. The
answers are questions in disguise, every new answer giving rise to
new questions." This example of Rabbi Heschel's thought and manner
of expression, familiar to the readers of his many books, serves as
an epigraph to The Wisdom of Heschel.
As Ruth Goodhill says in her foreword, "These selections from the
works of the prophetic giant of the twentieth century, Abraham
Joshua Heschel, represent my personal response to his writings.
This book, conceived during his lifetime, is offered as an
introduction to his thought and to his profound understanding of
the agonies of modern society."
Most of the selections are taken from God in Search of Man, The
Insecurity of Freedom, Man Is Not Alone, The Sabbath, The Prophets,
and Who Is Man? Among the categories in which the excerpts have
been grouped are "Questions Man Asks, " "Man's Needs, " "Caring for
Our Old, " "Teaching Our Young, " "Law, "" The Sabbath, " and "One
World."
