Torn at the Roots
When Jewish neoconservatives burst upon the political scene, many people were surprised. Conventional wisdom held that Jews were uniformly liberal. This book explodes the myth of a monolithic liberal Judaism. Michael Staub tells the story of the many fierce battles that raged in postwar America over what the authentically Jewish position ought to be on issues ranging from desegregation to Zionism, from Vietnam to gender relations, sexuality, and family life. Throughout the three decades after 1945, Michael Staub shows, American Jews debated the ways in which the political commitments of Jewish individuals and groups could or should be shaped by their Jewishness.

Rav Noach Weinberg
Rav Noach taught a generation the meaning of taking responsibility. First and foremost, that meant taking responsibility for all of the Almighty's children who were so far from Judaism. It extended to every aspect of the Jewish world that needed leadership and guidance. Rav Noach lived with the faith that if we show the Almighty that we care enough, He will provide us with the means to repair His world. To that end, he sacrificed his personal Torah learning and time with his family over decades to build Aish HaTorah and to aid hundreds of other organizations. Scoffed at and dismissed at the outset of his life's mission, Rav Noach lived to see much of his vision fulfilled, though never to the degree for which he prayed and worked so ardently. Rav Noach Weinberg: Torah Revolutionary is an inspiring and thought-provoking biography, written by famed biographer Yonoson Rosenblum. This unique work honestly addresses the development, teachings, controversies, and legacy of one of the most powerful and influential Torah figures of recent times: Rav Noach Weinberg of Aish HaTorah.

"For the Kinder" sings the praises of Thomas the Tank Engine, while "Love' s Lessons" concludes with mature love 's lyrical reveries, wistful childhood remembrance, homage to Triangle Shirtwaist victims and an altruistic "Prayer for Japan and the World."
