BUY A CASE OF FOOD - TO
HELP FEED THE JEWISH
HUNGRY.

/

"Kiss me, you fool!" to your sweet-
heart, remember you're uttering
the words first stated by Theda
Bara, the Jewish, Cincinnati-
born femme fatale of the silent
screen. (Some critics described
her performance on screen as
that of "a depraved, merciless
enslaver of men." Ooh la la!)
,-= Jewish Contributions to
the American Way of Life
(Northside Publishing), by Asher
Etkes and Saul Stadtmauer
charts the lives of these two
notables and more than 1,200
others who have influenced art,
literature, medicine, science and
\
music. Among those whom read-
• ers will meet: Edwin Land (in-
ventor of the Polaroid Land
Camera), Emile Berliner (who
created the Victor Talking Ma-
chine), William Paley (largely re-
F sponsible for developing CBS into
a major network) and Hirsch
Jacobs (a master horse breeder
an d tr ainer ).

A

new guide by Rabbis Ker-
ry M. Olitzky and Ronald
H. Isaacs offers the basics
on everything from how to
give tzedakah to how to write a
living will.
The Second How To Hand-
\, book for Jewish Living (Ktav)
is a user-friendly book, with the
whys and hows behind many
mitzvahs and Jewish customs. It
provides the source, complete
"what you need to know" direc-
tions, an explanation of key
words and phrases (in Hebrew
and English), and information for
;-= further study.
Rabbi Olitzky is director of the
School of Education at Hebrew
Union College-Jewish Institute
of Religion, and Rabbi Isaacs is
an author and head of Temple
Sholom in Bridgewater, N.J.
Another guide for Jews of
every flavor: The Jewish Reli-
,=-2 gion: A Companion (Oxford
\
University Press) by Louis Jacobs
offers insight on the smaller
topics, like whether caviar is
kosher, and the bigger ones, like
what Judaism has to say about
capital punishment.
With 750 entries, listed alpha-
betically (it couldn't be easier to
-, read), the book considers Jewish
history, religion and culture. It
also tackles challenging philo-
sophical questions (like the rela-
tionship between faith and
Zionism) and offers a brief how-
to guide on keeping kosher and
celebrating holidays.
This mini-encyclopedia has
profiles on some of the most
interesting figures in Jewish
history. If you've heard of the
Rambam, but you're not exactly
certain who he was and what he
did, just turn to page 330 and
you'll hear all about it. Or, if
you've always wondered exactly
what the holiday Shemini Atzeret
is, wonder no longer (see answer
page 463). ❑
