"'The Jewish experience, as Gelernter shows, echoes profoundly across the wider experience of humanity. Judaism itself is a wide-ranging book about the beliefs, practices and philosophy of the world's first monotheistic religion - a book that Jews and non-Jews alike will find well worth reading.' (Jay Lefkowitz, Wall Street Journal) 'In this brief but intellectually packed book, Gelernter attempts to present Judaism as a total structure... that can lead to understanding the pressing questions of human existence... Challenging, often exhilarating, richly learned, intensely personal, and tough-minded, Judaism offers a passionate picture of Judaism.' (Maron L. Waxman, Jewish Book World)"
