'This handsomely produced and interestingly illustrated volume
is two works in one. The first part offers a survey of Jewish
history and literature. The second part presents what the preface
describes as 'a thematic analysis of the teachings and practices of
Judaism.'' Israel Finestein, "Jewish Chronicle"
'Fluently written, with an admirable fair-mindedness in
surveying both history and belief.' A.J. Shermann, "Times Literary
Supplement"
'The intelligent non-expert gets a clear picture of Jewish life,
letters and history and it will be an endlessly useful reference
book.' Julia Neuberger, "Times Educational Supplement"
'A wide-ranging account of things Jewish that one can truly
recommend to intellectually curious Gentiles, as well as to the
majority of modern secularized Jews who know relatively little
about their complex tradition.' Louis Marcus, "Irish Times "
