Abstract
This online reader was produced as part of a two-year Leverhulme Major Research Fellowship 2013-15 awarded to Prof. Daniel Langton. The project was entitled Darwin's Jews and considered Western Jewish engagement with biological evolutionary theories, Darwinian or otherwise. For each individual, the online reader provides a contextual introduction, a primary text (for the Hebrew sources this means the original (PDF) and an English translation), excerpts from other writings by the author if appropriate, and a select bibliography. Each entry also includes a discussion forum.
