Floating Takes Faith: Ancient Wisdom for a Modern World

By David Wolpe

We are taught to study, to learn, and to let ourselves grow Jewishly. But where does being the people of the book get us in the real world?

David Wolpe's collection of essays responds to this question by exploring how Jewish values, such as scholarship and compassion, together with Jewish practice, enhance an individual's private and public life. How does Shabbat help deflect us from the pressures of the societal rat-race? How can Jewish learning subdue political unrest?
