"The Haskalah, or Jewish Enlightenment, was an intellectual movement in Europe that lasted from approximately the 1770s to the 1880s. The Haskalah was inspired by the European Enlightenment but had a Jewish character. It encouraged Jews to study secular subjects, to learn both the European and Hebrew languages, and to enter fields such as agriculture, crafts, the arts and science. The maskilim (followers of the Haskalah) tried to assimilate into European society in dress, language, manners and loyalty to the ruling power. The Haskalah eventually influenced the creation of both the Reform and Zionist movements" - Shira Schoenberg. Some of its leaders in Russia were: Tobias Cohn; Isaac bar Levinsohn; Max Lilienthal; Alexander Zederbaum; Perez ben Mosheh Smolenskin; Moses Lob Lilienblum; and others. Very good copy. JUDAICA BOX 2

The arrangement is not in the traditional order, but rather organized according to topic, thereby focussing on the educational value rather than on completeness."

Original full red cloth binding. Original dust jacket with price, spine faded with small loss and tears, somewhat crudely repaired with archival tape. Hardbound. This history of the early theories and development of atomic energy and the atomic bomb was Asimov's first book on physics, and one of his earliest non-fiction books for the general public.
