In this new edition contemporary Judaism is presented in all its
rich diversity, including both traditional and modern theologies as
well as secular forms of Jewish identity. While the focus of the
book is on developments that have taken place in the past two
hundred years, they are set against a historical background, going
back to the Bible. Beginning with a description of the Jewish
people as it exists in today's world, it studies the unique concept
of Jewish peoplehood and its survival over the centuries in the
face of many challenges. An account of the key texts is followed by
studies of the different interpretations of the religion, and the
ways that life is lived out both in the home and in the community.
Jewish theology is described both historically and in terms of
contemporary issues. An important and distinctive section considers
the goals of Jewish life and faith.
