ISRAEL IN AMERICA: A TOO-COMFORTABLE EXILE?

Boston; Beacon Press, 1985. Item #32873

Softcover. 8vo. XI, 203 pages. 21 cm. First edition. In this lively and thoughtful series of essays, distinguished Jewish scholar and educator Jacob Neusner examines the American Jewish community-the history of its Judaism, its practices, its beliefs, and its paradoxical position as "Israel in America. " Neusner traces the history of American Judaism from its immigrant and isolationist origins to the present-day movement of Jewish reaffirmation. He outspokenly discusses the impact of American Jews on classic Judaic theology, their complex and often troubled relationship with the state of Israel, and the public policy changes they face on a daily basis. Subjects: Judaism - United States. Light wear to wraps, otherwise fresh and clean. Good condition. (NEUSNER-3-22).
