Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: No Dust Jacket As Issued. First Edition. "While the author could not hope to remove the veil of secrecy over all the involved symbolism of the Kabbalah, his contribution to the subject, particularly in revealing and rendering accessible the more profound metaphysical ideas,…will be appreciated by those who can still find in the 'Ancient Wisdom' the dignity and potency of reason." - Preface to Book One. "Spinoza's philosophy postulates that reason is the essence of man. To reveal the true rational nature of man, it is necessary to free man's mind from the vast encrustation of prejudices, fictions, illusions and passions." - Preface to Book Two. Book One was published in 1931 and Book Two the following year. [6], [1]-127; [iv]-vi, [2], 270 p. "Harry Waton (1871-1959) was a Russian-born American rabbi, kabbalist and philosopher, focused on the works of Karl Marx and Benedict Spinoza." - Wikiquote. He is perhaps best remembered for his 1939 book "A Program For The Jews And An Answer To All Anti Semites."

No dust jackets, presumably as issued. A sound and uncommon set. ; 8vo.
