City of Light (Theodore and Aimee Bikel)

$16.95

THE CITY OF LIGHT by Theodore Bikel with Aimee Ginsburg Bikel, illustrated by Noah Phillips (Trade Hardcover Original; November 5, 2019; $16.95; ISBN 978-1942134619).

The beloved late movie actor, folk singer, musician, composer, unionist, and political activist poignantly recounts moments from his childhood in Vienna, when he experienced and witnessed anti-Semitism as Nazi influence grew—and dreamed of a Jewish superhero, Judah Maccabee who could rescue the Jews. The book is based on a story commissioned by Moment Editor-in-Chief Nadine Epstein that was published in the magazine and read aloud on NPR’s Hanukkah Lights program in 2014.

RBG’s Brave & Brilliant Women: 33 Jewish Women to Inspire Everyone

$16.95
This collection of biographies of brave and brilliant Jewish women–selected in collaboration with the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg and including an introduction written by the Supreme Court justice herself. This intergenerational book features a roster of inspirational historical role models and recounts the life story of Justice Ginsburg and why these women were important to her. Includes a call to action. (Random House)

‘This book is a treasure, filled with stories of remarkable Jewish women. Some of the names will sound familiar, many are not; all deserve more attention for their courage and determination. It‘s great reading for girls—and boys—eager for role models--and the rest of the family too!’

ANN F. LEWIS, FORMER WHITE HOUSE COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR

Can Robots Be Jewish?

$24.95
Can Robots Be Jewish? And Other Pressing Questions of Modern Life 
Should we edit our children's genes?  Are there things that can't be forgiven?  Are Jews still expecting a messiah? Is Judaism good for women? Should Jews strive to be happy?  Do Jews believe in the afterlife?  Can robots be Jewish?
In this book, rabbis spanning the range of modern Jewish thought, from Humanist and Reform to Orthodox and beyond, consider these difficult and provocative questions and many others. Sometimes they agree - but not often. Editor Amy E. Schwartz provides delightful commentary, celebrating the rabbinic impulse to question every assumption and highlighting the many and sometimes surprising ways ancient texts can speak to us today. Listed by the Religion News Service list 0f "The most intriguing books on religion we read this year," Can Robots Be Jewish? is a must read!
