<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>A modern classic of Jewish theology, <i>Man Is Not Alone </i>is a profound, beautifully written examination of the ingredients of piety: how man senses God's presence, explores it, accepts it, and builds life upon it. It is a major theological work, which led Reinhold Niebuhr accurately to predict that Heschel would become a commanding and authoritative voice not only in the Jewish community but in the religious life of America.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>Man Is Not Alone</i> is a profound, beautifully written examination of the ingredients of piety: how man senses God's presence, explores it, accepts it, and builds life upon it. Abraham Joshua Heschel's philosophy of religion is not a philosophy of doctrine or the interpretation of a dogma. He erects his carefully built structure of thought upon foundations which are universally valid but almost generally ignored. It was <i>Man Is Not Alone</i> which led Reinhold Niebuhr accurately to predict that Heschel would become a commanding and authoritative voice not only in the Jewish community but in the religious life of America. With its companion volume, <i>God in Search of Man</i>, it is revered as a classic of modern theology.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"For Jews and Christians beyond the numbering, Abraham Joshua Heschel was a spiritual mentor who changed our lives in ways that we are still trying to understand." --<i>The Reverend Richard John Neuhaus, editor in chief of First Things</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Abraham Joshua Heschel</b> (1907-72) was internationally known as a scholar, author, activist, and theologian.
