Résumé : |
Originally written as a wedding gilt for the author’s son, Rudicu/ Then, Radical Non- is a powerful testimony to the amazing resilience ol Jewish people who have, through their endurance of four thousand years of persecution and exile, earned a unique place in history. Without a land oi- power, they created an identity for themselves through their shared dreams of freedom, justice, dignity and human rights.
Yet far more than Jewish history is contained within the pages of this book. Jonathan Sacks reminds us all of the legacy of those dreams and of our responsibility to our fellow man. He challenges us to build a better world. |
