Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In this groundbreaking study, Henry L. Feingold--one of the most prominent historians today--examines the special challenges facing American Jews. The twin processes of American acculturation and secularization have acted like a powerful whirlpool, pulling them away from their inherent sense of separateness as Jews. They became Americans.

Synopsis:

Questions the price paid in terms of identity for the success of American Jews in business and the professional world.

Description:

Includes bibliographical references (p. 213-215) and index.
