The Book of Tahkemoni

'This new edition and translation is a formidable work of scholarship. In addition to a readable version of a complicated text, Segal offers the reader invaluable editorial help in negotiating these exotic tales; his extensive set of analyses of Alharizi's introduction and the fifty "Gates" (or sections) could constitute a separate monograph . . . A meticulous and accomplished work that will reward the general reader as well as scholars.'
