German plans. She began smuggling
people out of the work camp, hiding
Jews in the basement of a Nazi major
s
home and learned how to fight back. In
My Hands: Memories of a Holocaust
Rescuer (Ember), by Irene Gut Opdyke
and Jennifer Armstrong, is powerful and
life-affirming. Appropriate for readers
age 14 and up.
The November 1995 murder of
Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin
by a religious Jew opposed to the peace
process had a profound impact that con-
tinues to reverberate to this day. Based
on interviews, confessions, court docu-
ments, and the cooperation of both the
Rabin and the murder
s families, Killing
a King by Dan Ephron (W
.W
. Norton
& Co.) is a tightly coiled narrative that
sheds new light even if the social and
political answers remain elusive.
The first Jew on the U.S. Supreme
Court (1916-1939), Louis D. Brandeis
complicated, skeptical and progres-
sive fiercely defended personal and
economic liberty while opposing govern-
ment and business stricken by the curse
of bigness.
He championed education
and jurisprudence in democracy. As
the leader of the American Zionist
Movement, Brandeis helped convince
U.S. President Woodrow Wilson and
the British government of the impor-
tance of a Jewish homeland in Palestine.
Published on the 100th anniversary
of the justice
s confirmation, Louis D.
Brandeis, American Prophet (Yale
University Press) by legal expert Jeffrey
Rosen, authoritatively examines the
ISRAEL/JUDAISM
In Doomed to Succeed: The U.S.-
Israel Relationship from Truman
to Obama (Farrar Straus Giroux),
American diplomat Dennis Ross looks
back before, and through, his own
30-year involvement in American
efforts to help achieve peace between
Israel and its neighbors since the 1980s
and to explore why the American-
Israeli alliance remains strong despite
deep differences in personalities
and politics. Ross argues that peace
can only be made if the relation-
ship remains ironclad, and offers
advice about how to understand Arab
and Israeli politics and best shape
American policy in that light.
After 15 years, award-winning
Jewish journalist George Robinson
has updated his Essential Judaism: A
Complete Guide to Beliefs, Customs
and Rituals (Atria Paperback). It
s a
comprehensive, concise reference that
has been relied upon by, for instance,
b
nai mitzvah and potential converts.
Revised topics include denominational
shifts, intermarriage and gay marriage,
and the evolving roles of women.
Kaddish, edited by David
Birnbaum and Martin S. Cohen (New

writings of 28 scholars on the Jewish
prayer of mourning including an
