Israel Observed: An
Anatomy of the State" by
William Frankel (Thames
and Hudson) serves well for
readers seeking basic in-
formation about the Jewish
state, its foundation, its
people and its functions.
The book has been re-
issued as a paperback. It
first appeared in hardcover
in 1980, with another addi-
tion appearing in 1981.
The party system, the re-
ligious problems. the roles
of Moshe Dayan and other›, .
in Israel's leadership, the
Likud and Menahem Begin
and the Labor Alliance
Leaders are fully evaluated.
Every aspect of a
people's sovereignty, the
struggles for survival, the
Arab neighbors — all the
elements of the issues
surrounding the Jewish
state are covered here,
thus providing 'history
and sociology as guides
to a knowledge of the
status of Israel in the in-
ternational community.

James Yaffe's novel,
"Saul and Morris: Worlds
Apart" (Holt, Rinehart and
Winston), is a reflection of
Jewish life in 20th Century
America.
Each period through
which the story takes the

through with its own par-
ticular character and flavor.
The story centers on the
lives of two close friends;
Saul, a businessman who
had been married to one
woman for 50 years, and
Morris, an artist and con-
firmed bachelor.
Yaffe is a professor of
English at Colorado Col-
lege. A native New Yorker,
he now lives with his wife
and three children in Col-
orado Springs, Colo.

Three articles on cor-
anti-Semitism
porate
form the basis for "The
Einstein Syndrome: Cor-
porate anti-Semitism in
America Today" by
Stephen L. Slavin and
Mary A. Pradt (Univer-
sity Press of America).
It is the authors' conten-
tion that American Jews
are not fully accepted in the
business world, particularly
in the upper echelons of the
corporate hierarchy. The
book makes use of a consid-
erable array of data to show
that Jewish executives are
systematically excluded
from the corporate
mainstream in this country.
Stephen L. Slavin re-
ceived a PhD in economics
from New York University
and is the author of numer-
ous articles on economics
and politics which have ap-
peared in scholarly journals
and newspapers.
Mary A. Pradt is a
graduate of Columbia Uni-
versity. She currently
works for Time magazine
and has written non-fiction
articles for a variety Of pub-
lications. * * *

A paperback version of
Nessa Rapoport's "Pre-
paring for Sabbath" (Wil-
liam Morrow) has just
been issued by Bantam
books.
Miss Rapoport's novel
tells the story of Judith
Rafael, a young, devoutly
Jewish girl who is searching
for both God and -love.
Miss Rapoport is a senior
editor at a New York pub-
lishing house. Her short
stories have appeared in
various magazines.

Set in ancient Rome and
Judea, "Dark Moon" by J.H.
Brennan (Holt, Rinehart
and Winston), blends bibli-
cal lore with a touch of the
demonic in a retelling of the
life of Christ.
Brennan's novel offers
an incisive and convinc-
ing reconstruction of the
crucifixion and the
events leading up to it.
J.H. Brennan, who lives
in Ireland, is the author of
nine other works of fiction.

Earl Shorris, a contribut-
ing editor to Harper's,
maintains that Jews, tradi-
tionally liberal, have
turned to the right.
He is critical and main-
tains that an established
tradition has been aban-
doned, that Jews are adher-
ing less to liberal causes.
He maintains that charge



under the title "Jews With- are meeting with great re-
sentment, says about the
out Mercy" (Doubleday).
It stands to reason that book that it is "precisely the
the accused, like Norman shock of awareness we now
Podhoretz, reject the need in the Diaspora and in
charge. Podhoretz calls Israel."
As self-criticism, Earl
the book "garbage."
But Jacobo Timerman, Shorris' book is an interes-
whose attacks on Israel now ing challenge.
