Teaching Photography
Finally, a book for you teachers! Because making great photographs does not always translate into an ability to teach effectively.

Drawing on newly available sources--including a collection of interviews wit...
Eros and the Jews
Contradictory stereotypes about Jewish sexuality pervade modern culture, from Lenny Bruce's hip eroticism to Woody Allen's little man with the big libido (and even bigger sexual neurosis). Does Judaism in fact liberate or repress sexual desire? David Biale does much more than answer that question as he traces Judaism's evolving position on sexuality, from the Bible and Talmud to Zionism up through American attitudes today.
