What to expect
Judaism isn't just a set of religious laws and principles. It's a way of thinking about the meaning of life. You'll find men and women sharing the wisdom of the ages, and often their ideas were extremely controversial at the time they first wrote them. Some were so controversial that their authors were exiled or even excommunicated. Now, they're all here in one fun and accessible volume that will give you a new outlook on life—a new level of happiness and joy.
This book contains twenty sets of explosive, life-changing ideas and philosophies about how to maximize your happiness, joy, and how you find meaning in life. If you're Jewish, these ideas (traditionally known only to those in the Orthodox world) are your heritage. They already belong to you. It's time to "take delivery" of what's already yours and learn the secrets of Jewish wisdom, character, and yes, survival. These concepts go back to the very creation of the Torah and relate to everything from being the best possible person we can be to understanding Jewish concepts of sex and intimacy. It's all here—waiting to be unpacked and put to use—in author Michael Levin's Happily Jewish.
