Spine broken and flawy. Inside in a good condition. - Rabbi Moses ben Maimon (1135 or 1138 in Cordova, Spain - 1204 in Egypt), commonly known as Maimonides, was a medieval Sephradic Jewis philosopher who became one of the most prolific and influential Torah scholars of the Middle Ages. In his time, he was also a preeminent astronomer and physician. - Sigmund Seelligmann (1873 in Karlsruhe - 1940 in Amsterdam) bibliographer and historian. Came to Amsterdam in 1884, later studying at its rabbinical seminary. Maintaining worldwide contacts with Jewish scholars, he put his rich knowledge and important library at their disposal. He was a Torah scholar and a committed representative of neo-orthodox Judaism in the sense of Samson Raphael Hirsch, whose motto was: Torah in derecherez (Hebrew, translated as "life according to the Torah in connection with secular education"). Seeligmann founded the Genootschap voor de Joodsche Wetenschap in Nederland ("The Cooperative for Jewish Science in the Netherlands"), was its first president and correspondent member of the American Jewish Historical Society. He was widely known as the capacity of Jewish bibliography and advised researchers in the US and around the world.
