Roths lucid treatment demands consideration by students in the history of Judaism and the philosophy of religion.
-Gregory Kaplan, Religious Studies Review
The first thing one notices in picking up Is there a Jewish Philosophy? is the deep humanity of the author . . . I should confess that I never met Roth and so cannot testify to his personal charm or charisma. Suffice it to say that after reading [this book] I very much wish I had.
-Kenneth Seeskin, Shofar
Roth was a clear and lively writer with an analytic grasp of what Judaism is all about. For a taste of vintage Roth, this collection is highly recommended, and not only to the new generation.
- Shubert Spero, Studies in Contemporary Jewry
This new collection of writings and lectures reveals him as a profound logical and liberal Jewish thinker.
-Michael Hilton, World Faiths Encounter
