This collection of essays from various topics in Jewish history & traditional religious literature demonstrates the diverse aspects of Jewish tradition that can still speak with familiarity to modern 'western' culture. Though the essays are on topics such as religious custom & scholarship, community, liturgy, & interfaith relationships, they are designed for a non-academic audience, using humour & insight to stress themes that speak to contemporary situations.
