Jeremy Rosen is a respected Rabbi and thought-provoking journalist who has
been at the forefront of Jewish Education for over twenty years. This book
is a selection of some of his most interesting articles covering a diverse
range of topics. Whether it is music, art or politics; Jeremy Rosen gives
them all his own individual style.
Running through all of them is a unique sense of humor, a universal idealism
and large doses of human sensitivity. Sometimes provocative, but always honest,
Jeremy Rosen has chosen the life of a maverick on the borders of his community,
to show that there are many ways of being Jewish and experiencing the beauty
of its traditions. Jeremy Rosen is the eldest son of Kopul Rosen, the man
responsible for founding Carmel College.
He attended Cambridge University where he obtained a degree in philosophy.
