This book looks at psychosexual and relationship therapy through the lens of Orthodox Judaism. It examines the broader issues and the efficacy of how working within the Jewish Orthodox world could be translated into a wider client population. The book also explores historical contexts and concepts of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It hopes to inform educators, students and practitioners in the field.

This book contains two parts. In the first part children visit ancient Rome and Athens in a time machine. They experience the life of the people, and they listen to mythological stories narrated with an additional modern twist. The second part deals with life into the not too distant future, incorporating the technologies we have of our time and projecting them into the next century. The book contains tongue-in-check humor and irony, brain teasers, and the origin of our idiomatic expressions. It is recommended for young and more mature adults who want to be entertained in a light-hearted way.

Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) Jews will constitute the majority of America Jewry before the end of the 21st century. Many Haredi women are responsible not only for raising children but for supporting their families while their husbands study full time. Yet Haredi men always have the public persona and are placed in positions of authority; in the working world, women¿s roles are private. In the non-Orthodox community, this is often seen as misogynistic, but in the framework in which these women live, the situation is perceived differently. Few have been able to investigate this cultural reality, because the Haredi world is insular and does not invite others in. The authors of A Parallel Universe were able to meet the challenges of obtaining subjects for their study, overcoming concerns regarding privacy, modesty, and identifiability, because one of them is "of" the community and can relate personally and professionally to the administrators whose portraits constitute the narrative. A Parallel Universe identifies the key leadership characteristics of five extraordinary female school principals in Haredi girls' schools, using the research approach of portraiture.

Gilgul is a compelling and radical take on the Chanukah story. The 15-year-old hero David must be smart, brave, strong and compassionate to stay alive and save his family and his people. He must figure out who to trust, and the fact that it is not always clear who the good guys and bad guys are adds tension and meaning to the novel. Even with the help of his equally heroic sister Leya, some unexpected courageous allies and a little magic, David has his work cut out for him. Gilgul will leave readers thinking anew about Chanukah, the re-dedication of the Second Temple, the Maccabees, the miracle of oil, and more. ¿CYNTHIA RAMSAY, Owner/Publisher, Jewish Independent Newspaper.

This cultural-historical book is the declaration of love for Berlin of a half-Jew who was born and grew up in a typical Berlin neighborhood. Now he lives in the United States, but his roots are still in Berlin. According to The Nuremberg Laws of 1936, he is a Mischling ersten Gradees, a half Jew, but is referred to by many Berliners as a Mampe Halb und Halb, a well-known bitter and herbal liqueur. The book depicts, among other things, life in a Berlin neighborhood with its language, its mixture of heart and snout; growing up with Jewish blood in his veins in the Third Reich; and living during the war and in the post-war era. Until 1945 the author¿s life vacillated between the twins Eros and Thanatos, but Eros was the stronger of the two.

Jewish sacred text is often misconstrued as purporting a view of God as wrathful and vengeful, demanding the administration of retributive justice through a series of immutable laws. It is a widely held belief that it was Christianity, and in particular the figure of Jesus Christ which brought love, kindness and mercy to the forefront of ethical behavior. Relying on examples taken from the Hebrew Bible, from Talmud and Midrash, this book shows that the ethical life sanctified in Jewish sacred texts is grounded in notions of interdependency and compassion. The book argues that the foundational moral principles of Jewish sacred text are in fact antecedent to and commensurate with what has become known through the work of psychologist Carol Gilligan as ¿care ethics¿ or ¿feminist ethics.¿ Listening to women discuss and evaluate moral dilemmas in a register of empathy and responsibility, Gilligan challenged the reigning construction of fairness and justice as the pinnacles of moral reasoning. Jews are called upon to be a holy people. What that means is to be a people who practice empathy and care, where the primacy of relationship is embedded in concepts of justice and compassion.
