of hitherto unpublished youth-
ful diaries, papers, speeches,
and more than 500 letters to
and from some of the leading
thinkers of his period, Cohen
touches on major issues of his
times and traces his own self-
portrait from the shy and
fiercely ambitious, impoverished
youth, to one of the great in-
fluences on twentieth century
logic, law, and social science.
Here he appears in his rela-
tions with his Harvard teacher
William James, his roommate,
Felix Frankfurter, Justices
Oliver Wendell Holmes and
Benjamin Cardozo, _L earned
Hand, Roscoe Pound, Albert
Einstein, Bertrand Russell, John
Dewey, George Santayana, Har-
old Laski, and other leading
spirits of his times. His un-
varnished thoughts, biting wit,
irreverent criticism, and con-
stant searching for truth, reveal
themselves in his letters along
with his humor, warmth, cour-
age, and final sacrifice of him-
self for the Jewish cause.
Among the most touching
portions of the book are those
telling of his love affair with
Mary Ryshpan, their ardent, yet
hesitant courtship, and the mar-
riage that resulted in a reward-
ing life-long personal and pro-
fessional partnership.
rector of the Jewish National
Fund, which required frequent
visits to countries throughout

tries, made it possible for him
to study at first hand the trends
and currents in the developing
international relationships, and
particularly those affecting the
Jewish components of the prob-
lem.
The public is invited to at-
tend as guests of Detroit's fare-
well reception for Consul Gen-
eral David S. Tesher. This will
be the last occasion on which
he will be in Detroit prior to
his leaving the United Statet to

diplomatic responsibilities as
Ambassador of his country to
