RELIGION. "Conservative Judaism seeks continuity with tradition as well as relevance to the present day world.

This is the task to which this work addresses itself in the words of 23 distinguished contributors, written during the course of the past century. This book helps establish the areas of agreement with Conservative Judaism and delineates those spheres in which there exists a diversity of opinion. " ...
