Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"David Ruderman's Missionaries, Converts, and Rabbis is of great value in understanding an often glossed-over aspect of Jewish modernity. It is also indispensable for better understanding what is at stake as Jews and Christians continue to navigate what separates them and what unites them. Ruderman shows us the openness and seriousness of some of the missionaries and their Jewish detractors at a time when conversion was indeed very much on the table." * Tablet Magazine *
"A fascinating, original, and pathbreaking book. With its comprehensive treatment of the contexts and meanings of the missionary Alexander McCaul's work and the rich gallery of figures who responded to it, Missionaries, Converts, and Rabbis will be indispensable to scholars, students, and readers interested in Jewish cultural and intellectual history of the nineteenth century." * Shmuel Feiner, author of The Jewish Enlightenment *
