Question
Hello Rabbi Michael.
I read in your article about prayer that you enjoy Schalem books.
Could you please recommend one of Schalem's books that deals with philosophy?
Thanks in advance!
Answer
There are many. For example, Popper's The Open Society and Its Enemies.
Leo Strauss, Natural Right and History, on political philosophy.
Friedrich Hayek, The Road to Serfdom, on economics.
And there are also the political classics: Machiavelli, Hobbes, and others that were translated into Hebrew.
