An Intelligent Person's Guide to Judaism



What does it mean that we are spiritual beings? Can humans bring harmony to their dual spiritual and material nature and achieve success? After the astonishing success of Kosher Sex, Shmuley Boteach tackles this important issue in another freshly argued book that will stir up debate. Arguing that Judaism possesses a core of wisdom that appeals to Jews and non-Jews alike, Shmuley Boteach rejects Judaism seeking piety in abstractions, in rationalising injustice and suffering, in explaining the Holocaust away as a punishment for assimilation. He pleads for recognition of the fact that, unlike Christianity, Judaism, is not about death or suffering, but primarily about seeking optimism and spirituality. Judaism is a religion with a profound earthward orientation and is uniquely suited to modern-day men and women who desire professional success without starving their souls.
