Product Description
Man Is Not Alone 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 Man Is Not Alone which led Reinhold Niebuhr accur… More >>

The late great Mr. Heschel hits this one way out of the park. This book is highly thoughtful and intelligent but not a academically stagnant work. Great addition to any library.

Although I am not Jewish, infact I am an Evangelical Christian, I found this a remarkable book. Heschel was a very gifted man. His insights to the Hebrew scriptures, and indeed towards God, are powerful in their simplicity and their complexity. Read Heschel, don”t be afraid, he will expand you mind, and your heart. YET Your convinctions will remain firm. Buy this book, approach it with an open mind, you ll be heartily rewarded!

If you want to be infused with wonder for the God of the Universe, this book is filled with great aspects and ideas. Heschel is a man so sensitive to the changes of his time, that his writing is as fresh today as it was 50 years ago.

Man is not Alone is an extremely valuable read for “the searcher” who knows only the modern world of the the 21st century. For those who are receptive, Heschel hits certain core aspects of the self that can change one”s perspective of the world in which they live permanently. I am not going to provide specific examples from his chapters because when reading Heschel one is convinced of the inability of language to express all of our human longings. Read the book with an open mind and an open heart. Hopefully, Heschel”s words will affect you in the profound way they have affected me.

I first read bits of Man Is Not Alone in the 70s, but only today read through a just purchased copy of this lyrical reflection on religion and doubt, belief and faith, man and God, the Ineffable and Jewish tradition. Why I didn”t take in more of Heschel”s obvious wisdom on my first encounter with him long ago is unclear, but its clear to me now that this book, written in 1951, will continue to be appreciated as a spiritual classic for generations to come.

One thing I would like to say is always that car insurance cancelling is a dreaded experience and if you”re doing the right things as a driver you won”t get one. Many people do have the notice that they are officially dumped by their insurance company and many have to struggle to get additional insurance following a cancellation. Low-priced auto insurance rates are often hard to get after a cancellation. Having the main reasons regarding auto insurance cancellations can help owners prevent getting rid of in one of the most important privileges readily available. Thanks for the ideas shared through your blog.

I need some help. Last night I was working 1st shift at work and a dude came up to my register to pay his bill and he went into his jacket pocket and brought out a one dollar bill and said, “This is all I have in with me. I do not have the rest cash to pay you.” Then he did the most stunning thing. He instsantly turned the $1 bill into a master card. WTF I came home and got on google and found the magic trick video BUT I am not paying $29 dollars to know the secret. Can you figure the illusion out?

Between me and my husband we”ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I”ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
