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.

Practical Kabbalah
by Laibl Wolf
Kabbalah is an ancient Jewish wisdom that explains the laws of spiritual energy. Up until very recently the Kabbalah was reserved for the elite, those who only after years of scholarship and practice were allowed to enter this mystical realm. However, one doesn't need to devote one's life to intense study to reap the rich rewards of the Kabbalah. With just a basic understanding of a few key concepts, our lives can be enriched immensely. We can then begin to fulfill our deepest dreams and reach our most important goals, becoming the people we long to become. By learning to understand the Sefirot--the ten spiritual properties that flow from the cosmic source into our heart--we can connect to the universe and profoundly transform our experience of daily life. For example, Hessed, or "loving-kindness," represents the desire to be generous, while Gevurah is the desire to focus intently or withhold. These properties must be balanced in order for harmony and well-being to occur. Rabbi Laibl Wolf shows how to maintain that balance and enjoy a healthy and productive life by using simple meditation and creative visualization techniques to grasp the spiritual nature of our life. Practical Kabbalah draws upon ancient wisdom but offers a modern interpretation and easy-to-understand techniques for delving deeper into our selves and our world and for reaping the bounteous gifts that were always meant for us.
