A concise and readable survey of the history of the Jewish people, from earliest exile to the creation of the State of Israel and the present day. Focusing particularly on the modern period, the book provides a valuable introduction to contemporary Jewish beliefs and practices and looks at the ways in which Judaism has adapted, and continues to adapt, to the challenges of the modern world.
