Kraemer (emeritus divinity, U. of Chicago) offers a substantial biography of Jewish philosopher Moses Maimonides (1138-1204). He discusses his birth and childhood in the multi-cultural milieu of Islamic Spain, his time in Morocco and Acre, and his many years in Egypt where he lived most of his adult life and did most of his writing.
