Being Jewish
by Ari L. Goldman

In BEING JEWISH, the widely respected journalist Ari Goldman offers an eloquent discussion of the meaning and origins of the ritual moments at the heart of Judaism Rooted in tradition without embracing any one ideology, this thoughtful volume transcends the boundaries of the Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform movements to explore every aspect of Judaism as it is lived today. Beginning with the rites of birth, Goldman describes the rituals associated with coming of age, marriage, and death. From the observance of the Sabbath and the sacred holidays to the role of prayer, the dietary laws, and other daily rituals, this elegant book documents Jewish spiritual and cultural life from an intimate yet objective point of view. It is a work of great substance and wide appeal.
