  In this book, Nicholas de Lange examines the basic elements of Judaism, both as a religion and a way of life. Assuming no prior knowledge, the book opens with an account of the Jewish people and the main lines of its history. The following eight chapters are structured around this historical framework and focus on the different strands that make up the fabric of Judaism. The Torah and tradition, worship, the Bible, law, ethics, mysticism, theology and eschatology are all discussed, with a final chapter exploring the problems facing Judaism today, helping to illustrate that Judaism is a living and important religion.

  Among the minority religions of the Western world, Judaism is the oldest-established and in many ways the most familiar. Yet it is a religion about which there are many misconceptions, partly because of certain stereotypes derived from Christian missionary propoganda of an earlier age. Nicholas de Lange aims to set the record straight by presenting Judaism from the inside, but in a way accessible to non-Jewish readers.
