About This Item
Good. Good Ships From Canada 338 pages From Booklist: Judaism has not proved immune to the holistic, inward-looking spiritualism of much contemporary religious practice Petsonk articulately describes the resulting innovations Yet in presenting how prayer, meditation, mysticism, and rituals can be adapted to suit contemporary perspectives, she steers refreshingly clear of New Age rhetoric Drawing primarily on her own and friends' experiences, she discusses the communitarian havurah movement that began in the 1960s and how it came to incorporate the social and political causes of the ensuing decades Her book is most valuable for the chapters describing the different ways that Jewish gays and feminists--groups traditionally scorned by many doctrinaire congregations--are able to explore and take pride in their religious identity The appended comprehensive directory of Jewish social action networks, archives, educational institutions, and publications will greatly help those who want to follow
