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.

Tough Questions Jews Ask
by Edward Feinstein
The art of asking good questions is a hallmark of Jewish spirituality. But for young people, it often feels as if no one is willing to take their questions about spirituality seriously--even the best-intentioned of adults can be dismissive, condescending, or even just unable to explain the hows and whys of their own beliefs. This conversational, engaging book turns all that around. Wise but accessible, reverent but funny, Rabbi Edward Feinstein leaves no question unasked and no curiosity unaddressed. --Why should I believe in God? --Are the stories in the Bible true? --How can anyone believe in God after all the terrible things that happen to people? --What's life for? Is that a dumb question? --Why does religion need to have so many rules? --Why are there so many different religions? Aren't all religions the same? --How come in history everyone's out to get the Jews? Do we deserve this? --What happens to people after they die? --Why be Jewish?
