-from the Introduction
What draws Jews back to their religiousroots? What drives them away? What obstacles must they overcometo find their way home?
Paula Amann candidly probes thesequestions and more as she explores how secular and nominal Jewsare blazing their own trails toward a vibrant,twenty-first-century Judaism. With the ear of a journalist andthe heart of a seeker, Amann weaves a tapestry of humanstories-of alienation, connection, spiritual detours, andunexpected portals into a life of faith. The people you meet inthis engaging book will throw a fresh light on Jewish thoughtand practice. And their tales of personal transformation mightjust renew your relationship with Judaism-or send you offon your own Jewish journey.
