Summary:After some twenty years of intensive and fruitful work, Gad Freudenthal has decided to step down as editor of Aleph. During this time, Aleph and Freudenthal have been almost synonymous, creating and developing a lively international platform for the historical study of science and Judaism. It is in large part due to Freudenthal's efforts that Aleph has become a success. With his indefatigable energy Freudenthal established contacts in Europe, Israel, and the US, soliciting articles from scholars in many fields and encouraging young scholars to submit the fruits of their research to Aleph. It is no exaggeration to say that he has created not only a journal, but also a scientific community. Aleph began as an annual; the volume of material submitted necessitated twice-yearly publication from 2009 on.
