Trade Review
"The best general overview of contemporary American Jewish life that now exists....Waxman brilliantly succeeds in summarizing and synthesizing a large number of recent studies (his bibliography is a reference work in itself), and he manages to place everything both in historical perspective and within the framework of broader sociological theories of ethnicity and religion. The book is well written and organized."
