This book deals with the life and thought of an original but
neglected religious thinker who, perhaps more than any other in the
history of Jewish thought, grappled with the problems inherent in
the idea of God's unity. Rabbi Aaron Horowitz is generally
acknowledged to be the most outstanding, systematic exponent of the
profound Habad theory of Hasidism. With the renewed interest in
Jewish mysticism in general and Hasidism in particular, this work
can serve as an excellent introduction to the more intricate and
stimulating ideas of the Movement, normally to be found only in
recondite tomes written in difficult Rabbinic Hebrew and therefore
beyond the scope of even serious students of the subject. One of
the most striking features of the book is the way it demonstrates
that there is a close affinity between Habad thought and Far
Eastern spirituality. Dr Jacobs has succeeded in bringing a
vanished world to life for the modern reader.
