  <abstract>This book promotes a philosophical revival of Buber’s dialogical thought by repositioning it as a philosophy of action, departing from a long-established consensus that narrowly viewed it as a post-Kantian epistemology. Based on careful analysis of his writings, the book’s main thrust is to reconstruct Buber’s argument that dialogue is the perfected form of action, and a perfect action is necessarily dialogical. This reconstruction renders Buber's dialogical thought pertinent to contemporary analytic philosophy by situating it within central discussions in the field of philosophy of action. Dr. Asaf Ziderman, a scholar of Modern Jewish thought, earned his PhD from Tel Aviv University's School of Philosophy in 2019. His current research focuses on a philosophical analysis of intimacy, meaning, identity, and belonging within 20th-century Jewish thought.</abstract>
