The Book of Life and the Power of Books

The Book of Life is a monthly podcast about Jewish people and the books we read. In this episode we explore the power of books to sustain the Jewish people. We hear from Jonathan Kirsch, author of God Against the Gods and A History of the End of the World, about his upcoming keynote address to the Association of Jewish Libraries. We meet Nancy Kalikow Maxwell, author of Sacred Stacks: The Higher Purpose of Libraries and Librarianship. We learn about WJEW, an online Jewish radio station managed by teens. And we hear about Milk & Honey Press, a new Hebrew/English publisher of children's books.
