| 1. |  | Etz Hayim: Torah and Commentary from Jewish Publication Society of America Price: $58.00 Customer Review:  This is literally an ESSENTIAL reference for anyone seriously interested in Biblical studies.

It presents the services for both Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kipur together in a single volume. The main body of the text is mostly traditional, and people who went to Orthodox and Conservative synagogues will be familiar with it. However, there... |

| 12. |  | Lubavitchers As Citizens: A Paradox of Liberal Democracy from Cornell University Press Price: $33.11 Customer Review:  This book was HORRIBLE!

| 13. |  | Evangelizing the Chosen People: Missions to the Jews in America, 1880 - 2000 (H. Eugene and Lillian Youngs Lehman Series) from The University of North Carolina Press Price: $27.50 Customer Review: This book is a great resource for those who want to know the truth about the Hebrew-Christian and so-called messianic movement, which were created for the goal of converting all Jews to Christianity. The only aspect of the book I didn't like is that the author takes a neutral approach when... |

There are many volumes written about prayer and repentance. Mostly they are archaic, dry, technical. Very few are inspiring, motivating the reader to actually try out what is suggested. What an extraordinary exception to the rule with Prof. Schochet's "Deep Calling Unto Deep." It... |

| 19. |  | A Jewish Conservative Looks at Pagan America from Huntington House Publishers Customer Review: What the author of the book lacks in logic he makes up in angry rethoric. Feder simply makes no attempt at following the most elementary use of logic. His conclusions are pure dogma. For example, he (rightfully) criticizes Nazism and Communism for causing much horror throughout their respective... |

It codifies the levels of the soul (Naranchay - nefesh, ruach, neshama, chaya and yechida) and goes into topics I've forgotten about as I currently don't have a copy of this book. In other words, this book... |
