From the Introduction: The Past four decades have been a time of unprecedented and ominous upheaval in Jewish life. Within this short span of time one-third of the Jewish people were killed, a Jewish state was founded, Jerusalem once again came under Jewish control, Soviet Jews experienced a resurgence of Jewish identity and self-consciousness, American Jewry proceeded further along the road to assimilation, and continued threats to the state of Israel once again proved its vulnerability and its dependence upon the good will of other nations. This work analyzes the changes in religious consciousnes experienced by one deeply sensitive participant in these events.
