The Guide for the PerplexedThis is the full, unabridged text of one of the greatest philosophic works of all time. Written by a 12th century thinker who was equally active as an original philosopher and as a Biblical and Talmudic scholar, it is both a classic of great historical importance and a work of living significance today.

This is the full, unabridged text of one of the greatest philosophic works of all time. Written by a 12th- century thinker who was equally active as an original philosopher and as a Biblical and Talmudic scholar, it is both a classic of great historical importance and a work of living significance today.
The Guide for the Perplexed was written for scholars who were bewildered by the conflict between religion and the scientific and philosophic thought of the day. It is concerned, basically, with finding a concord between the religion of the Old Testament and its commentaries, and Aristotelian philosophy. After analyzing the ideas of the Old Testament by means of "homonyms," Maimonides examines other reconciliations of religion and philosophy (the Moslem rationalists) and then proposes his own resolution with contemporary Aristotelianism.
The Guide for the Perplexed was at once recognized as a masterwork, and it strongly influenced Jewish, Christian, and Moslem thought of the Middle Ages. It is necessary reading for any full comprehension of the thought of such scholastics as Aquinas and Scotus, and indispensable for everyone interested in the Middle Ages, Judaism, medieval philosophy, or the larger problems which Maimonides discusses.

Avoid These Shoes
Size: 10, Color: Grey
The pair I received (gray) was not represented well in their photos. Mine had a lime green logo which looks silly. They also bunch up very badly when you pull the laces which looks ridiculous. Cheap feeling and look bad when tied. Sending back

Great pair of shoes
Size: 10, Color: Burgundy
I was a bit concerned that these shoes would be a bit large because I normally wear a size 9 1/2 and these are a size 10. But they fit perfectly. They are very light and comfortable. 👍

My son likes them
Size: 10, Color: A Black
Basic black sneakers that are breathable and my son says are very comfortable in the summer. My 15 year old has reached a time where he gets really sweaty feet and dislikes that so I bought him these breathable shoes and he says it’s a lot better having airflow throughout his shoe and he can still run and do sporty things in them staying comfortable. Very supportive, easy to put on and fit okay although I would recommend sizing up a half size although they fit him okay there’s not much wiggle room his foot is almost at the edge and I bought his normal size. Overall cheap, supportive, comfy and worth the price.

Super breathable, low-cost footwear
Size: 11, Color: A Black
Comfortable, super breathable, very light-weight. With this pricepoint, an easy purchase for a hot trip to Florida theme parks (despite them being black, they were still very cool compared to other sneakers). Adequate traction for rainy days. Extremely flexible - would likely be good for jogging as well. Had them for a few months now and wear them at least a couple times a week, no durability issues yet, they're still in fine shape.
