National Jewish Book Award Winner

Halakhic Man is the classic work of modern Jewish and religious thought by the twentieth century's preeminent Orthodox Jewish theologian and talmudic scholar, Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik. It is a profound excursion into religious psychology and phenomenology, a pioneering attempt at a philosophy of halakhah, and a stringent critique of mysticism and romantic religion. This 40th anniversary edition features this new scholarly apparatus:


- A translator's preface tracing the book's reception and evolving influence
- A translator's introduction shedding light on the heart of Soloveitchik's argument
- A list of errata to the original text
- Translator's annotations explaining Soloveitchik's references and underlying teachings
- A glossary of key terms
- A bibliography of works cited in this edition
- Two indexes: an index of biblical and rabbinic sources and an index of names and subjects incorporating the edition's full content.

Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik (1903-1993) was one of the twentieth century's outstanding talmudists and Jewish thinkers. Drawing on a vast reservoir of Jewish and general knowledge, he brought Jewish thought and law to bear on the interpretation and assessment of the modern experience and inspired generations of students. Soloveitchik's first major published work, Ish ha-Halakhah (Halakhic Man), is widely acknowledged as a classic in modern Jewish thought. Lawrence J. Kaplan is an associate professor of Jewish studies at McGill University. He is best known for his studies of Soloveitchik and for his translation from the Hebrew of Soloveitchik's classic Ish ha-Halakhah (Halakhic Man), lauded by scholars as the gold standard for Soloveitchik translations.
