Very good hard cover in a very good dust jacket.

With a clear and succinct style, this selection of Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook's writings grants readers a window into the rich, original, and creative--if occasionally dense--insights of the preeminent Halachist, Kabbalist, and Torah scholar. The book elucidates Kook's thoughts on a range of fascinating topics, including whether the Torah's account of creation can be reconciled with modern science, the Torah's view on vegetarianism, the purpose of death, why bad things happen to good people, the nature of God, and how to balance Torah study and work. The enduring wisdom of one of the great theological minds of the 20th century is laid bare in this fascinating book.
