Notes
"Colloquium '07 took place in the shadow of the tragic death of its founder and visionary, Rabbi Sherwin T. Wise. True credit for the power and importance of the Colloquium belong to him: he conceived the topic, assembled the scholars and set the context. ... His position paper on the topic as he conceived it lays the groundwork for this volume"--Page 1.
