Leiden - Boston, Brill, 2008. XXXI, 490 pp. Fine copy. Hardcover. English edition. Translated from the Hebrew.

The accounts of Saadia, Bahya, Halevi, Maimonides, and Crescas are among the fullest available in English. Other thinkers discussed in depth include Israeli, Ibn Gabirol, Gersonides, and Albo; the work also includes capsule summaries of Bar Hiyya, Falaquera, Albalag, Duran, Abravanel and others.
