If you have ever wondered what being born Jewish should mean to you; if you want to find out more about the nature of Judaism, or explain it to a friend; if you are thinking about how Judaism can connect with the rest of your life -- this is the first book you should own. It poses, and thoughtfully addresses, questions like these:
Can one doubt God's existence and still be a good Jew? Why do we need organized religion? Why shouldn't I intermarry? What is the reason for dietary laws? How do I start practicing Judaism?
The Nine Questions People Ask About Judaism was written for the educated, skeptical, searching Jew, and for the non-Jew who wants to understand the meaning of Judaism. It has become a classic and very widely read introduction to the oldest living religion. Concisely and engagingly, authors Dennis Prager and Joseph Telushkin present Judaism as the rational, moral alternative for contemporary man.

great for the skeptic:
Awesome book, I recommend for everyone to read especially the Intellectual Skeptic's. It's a great guide for Jews even if you Question the existence of G-d.
For inquiring minds....:
These two authors make a good team for giving responses to questions, responses that aren't too lengthy, yet are in-depth. That takes good writing, especially for a topic that some may find tough to get into. They make it not just palatable, but interesting.
A book for Jews who question the value of Judaism.:
This is a great book that squarely confronts the tough questions that Jewish people ask when they consider whether to devote any of their time to the faith of their fathers.
A Fantastic Book:
If you are interesting to know about Judaism, this is the first book you should read. Is extremly informative and will clarify many of your questions. I highly recommended. I don't care what is your religion but, if you believe in the G-d of the Bible and Abraham, you should read it. After all, the entire Bible is writing by Jews!!!
