| 1. |  | Betraying Spinoza: The Renegade Jew Who Gave Us Modernity from Schocken Price: $13.57 Customer Review:  This was an interesting and very readable book, but it's much more a discussion of Jewish late medieval and Enlightenment experiences in Iberia and the Dutch Republic and how those influenced Spinoza's philosophy than a biography of Spinoza. All of those would be welcome in a good biography, but... |

| 2. |  | The Mind-Body Problem (Contemporary American Fiction) from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $10.20 Customer Review: Plot Kernel: A female graduate student of philosophy at Princeton, of Jewish heritage but not practicing Judaism since adulthood, now dedicated to an intellectual, self-examined life but out of step with the viewpoint and reigning methods of analytic philosophy and thus of middling achievement... |

| 3. |  | Incompleteness: The Proof and Paradox of Kurt Godel (Great Discoveries) from W. W. Norton Price: $11.16 Customer Review:  This book centers on the irony that Gödel's own philosophical interpretation of his work (which indeed may have driven his efforts to begin with) was in complete opposition to how it was most commonly interpreted by others. Gödel was a Platonist, believing that the mind was able to... |

| 4. |  | Fearless Critic Austin Restaurant Guide from Off the Map Press Price: $11.21 Customer Review:  What could be a great resource for local restaurants is not very helpful. My experiences differ greatly from most of their reviews. This is clearly subjective reporting hyping the restaurants of friends and knocking the restaurants that are only guilty of being popular eateries and therefore subject... |

| 5. |  | Properties of Light from Mariner Books Price: $11.05 Customer Review: Even though I need a dictionary to read Rebecca Goldstein's books, I thoroughly enjoy them. "Properties of Light" was bittersweet, funny, sad, educational and thought provoking. I always feel changed in some way after reading her books. They inspire me to think differently. |

| 6. |  | Mazel (Library of American Fiction) from University of Wisconsin Press Price: $17.12 Customer Review: This is an intelligently written story of three generations of Jewish women. The major part is given to the Polish born grandmother the flamboyant actress Sasha but the key element in the work is the relationships between the generations. The grandmother abandoned Jewish religious life, the daughter... |

| 7. |  | Strange Attractors: Stories (Contemporary American Fiction) from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $15.00 Customer Review: This short story, The Editor's Story, renewed my love of reading. The author transported me back to 1907-1908, through a story told to supposed listener. The female author, Rebecca Goldstein, recounted the story of a male editor's evoking of the Modern Novel from the least expected... |

| 9. | [no image] | The Late-Summer Passion of a Woman of Mind from Random House Value Publishing Customer Review: This story of a German born academic Eva Mueller in the American university world has its main energy and interest in the first part of the book. Goldstein is very good at integrating 'intellectual material' into the story and makes a convincing picture of her heroine in that way. The story of her... |

| 16. |  | The Dark Sister (Library of American Fiction) from University of Wisconsin Press Price: $14.00 Customer Review:  This is the 6th book I have read of Goldsteins', and it is definitely the creepiest! For the first time, her protagonist is not beautiful - quite the contrary; Hedda is grotesquely ugly. Hedda is the author of complex 19th-century prose involving two sisters that turn out to be the same person... |

| 22. | [no image] | Jewish Encounters 3-Copy Boxed Set: Betraying Spinoza, Maimonides, and The Life of David from Schocken Price: $59.85 Customer Review: These works were originally published as part of a cooperative effort between the Jewish content book- centered website 'Nextbook' and Schocken books. The whole series is edited by Jonathan Rosen. Goldstein rereads the story of Spinoza and perhaps makes him more Jewish in his thought than he... |
