Description:... In this thoughtful and provocative book, Harvard Law Shcool professor Alan M. Dershowitz continues where his bestselling Chutzpah left off, addressing the most vital issue facing American Judaism today--Jewish survival into the twenty-first century. Dershowitz delves deeply into the questions of interfaith marriage and assimilation, and success and acceptance, and explaines how the goals and values of the Jewish community need to be reassessed and redirected in light of the crisis that now confronts it. His sobering message is a call to action that cannot be ignored. - Publisher description.
