Los judíos de la España antigua
¿Cuándo llegaron las primeras comunidades judías a España? ¿Por qué? Este libro estudia la presencia de judíos en España durante más de un milenio, sus ocupaciones y su capacidad adquisitiva.

Por último, explora la aparición del criptojudaísmo y el papel que jugaron las aljamas en la invasión islámica del año 711.
