Nechama Leibowitz has become widely recognized as one of the most influential Torah scholars of the 20th century. In this work, Shmuel Peerless, one of Nechamas students, systematically presents Nechamas unique approach to Torah instruction, organizing some of her methodological teachings and pedagogical techniques in a manner that makes them easily accessible to teachers and students of textual study alike. The information provided in this work is collected and extrapolated from Nechamas lectures and published writings. It is a treasure that will help to preserve Nechama the teacher, the scholar and the personality as an inspiration for future generations of teachers and students.
