In Gender and American Jews, Harriet Hartman and Moshe Hartman
interpret the results of the two most recent National Jewish
Population Surveys. Building on their critical work in Gender
Equality and American Jews (1996), and drawing on relevant
sociological work on gender, religion, and secular achievement,
this new book brings their analysis of gendered patterns in
contemporary Jewish life right to the present moment.
The first part of the book examines the distinctiveness of American
Jews in terms of family behavior, labor-force patterns, and
educational and occupational attainment. The second investigates
the interrelationships between "Jewishness" and religious,
economic, and family behavior, including intermarriage. Deploying
an engaging assortment of charts and graphs and a rigorous grasp of
statistics, the Hartmans provide a multifaceted portrait of a
multidimensional population.
