Reviews

Shlomo Sela is to be congratulated for making Ibn Ezra's astrological treatises available in a modern edition of very high quality. Bernard Goldstein, University of Pittsburgh [W]hat Sela has done here and is doing in this series is simply invaluable. Not only does he open up the astrological thought of Ibn Ezra himself, but he provides a doorway to the Arabic astrological tradition. Explaining technical terms, giving their history and the context of their transmission, he is contributing greatly not only to scholars of medieval Hebrew thought but to anyone interested in making sense of the basic concepts and practices of medieval astrology. Maud Kozodoy. H-Judaic, H-Net Reviews. August, 2012.
