kind people. Journey with Mark as he shares his most memorable and
remarkable stories about his animals. Meet a few of his furry, fuzzy and
frankly adorable friends!

countries to development in Information/
Technology to growing powers in Asia and
Latin America. All of it is likely to have profound
repercussions for Jews around the world.

world have been engulfed by new, unforeseen challenges," says former
Secretary of State Henry Kissinger."Eizenstat's remarkable book is
a brilliant, insightful and illuminating analysis of the global trends
that are poised to have a particularly devastating impact on America,
Israel and the West. The Future of the Jews is a deeply reasoned and
provocative work, worthy of serious attention:'
