Reviews

"A timely, highly original, and important work... What renders this book quite unique is its powerful and truly engaging autobiographical setting that lends Isaacs's argument a compelling first person urgency." Menachem Fisch, author of Rational Rabbis: Science and Talmudic Culture (IUP, 1997)
