After Auschwitz

When first published in 1966, "After Auschwitz" made headlines and sparked controversy as Jewish "death-of-God" theology. In this substantially revised and expanded edition, Rubenstein returns to old questions and addresses new issues with the same passion and spirit that characterized his original work. "Significant and often exciting . . . Rubenstein's discussions are often superb".--"Saturday Review". (Judaism)

Richard L. Rubenstein is Robert O. Lawton Distinguished Professor of Religion and Codirector of the Humanities Institute at Florida State University. His other books include The Religious Imagination, The Cunning of History: Mass Death and the American Future, The Age of Triage, and, with John K. Roth, Approaches to Auschwitz.
