Contemporary Jewish Ethics A Bibliographical Survey

'œ...[The volume] is the most comprehensive resource yet published on the broad spectrum of Jewish ethics, primarily because Breslauer's selections were chosen with an eye toward the broad philosophical bases of Jewish ethical thought rather than the more narrowly defined treatises dealing with specific ethical conflicts or situations. Breslauer's choices appear to be representative of the major schools of thought in contemporary Judaism; most of the entries cited will be easily located in the US, and an overwhelming number of the entries are for English-language sources. Breslauer's lengthy introductory essay provides a general discussion of Jewish ethics and can be used as a framework for understanding and using the bibliography. Each entry is annotated (approximately 75 words per annotation), and the volume is well cross-referenced. Recommended primarily for those libraries maintaining a robust Judaica collection.'' CHOICEBreslauer, S. Daniel is the author of 'Contemporary Jewish Ethics A Bibliographical Survey' with ISBN 9780313245947 and ISBN 0313245940.
