Book Synopsis

Trade Review
"For the general reader, and the ever-burgeoning number of students in Jewish studies programs, the Essential Papers series brings together a wealth of core secondary material, while the commentaries offered by the editors aim to place this material in critical comparative context." * Jewish Journal of Sociology *
