This book is the definitive 12th-century philosophical masterpiece by Moses Maimonides, originally written in Judeo - Arabic to reconcile the apparent conflicts between biblical revelation and Aristotelian science. This landmark 1910 London edition, published by George Routledge & Sons, features the celebrated translation by the British scholar Michael Friedländer, who successfully unified his original three-volume translation into a single, comprehensive volume for the broader English-speaking world. Addressing the ”perplexed” religious intellectual, the work systematically refutes the literal anthropomorphism of God, explores the rational mechanisms of prophecy and creation, and outlines the logical utility of divine commandments, serving as an enduring cornerstone of medieval rationalist philosophy.
