Books by Martin Buber

Martin Buber (1878–1965) was an Austrian-born Jewish philosopher and writer whose work spanned religious philosophy, existentialism, political theory, and education. He taught at the University of Frankfurt until the rise of National Socialism, emigrated to Palestine in 1938, and became a professor of social philosophy at Hebrew University, where he remained until retirement. In addition to I and Thou, his major works include Tales of the Hasidim, Moses, and Paths in Utopia. He was twice nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature and remained an influential figure in interfaith dialogue and humanistic psychology until his death in Jerusalem at eighty-seven.
