"""Using a social psychology approach, Hahn Tapper...invite[s] readers to see their own identities reflected through the lens of what they [a]re reading and discovering about Judaism and the Jewish experience.""-Renee Ghert-Zand, The Times of Israel The Times of Israel ""Hahn Tapper hopes the book will 'convey academic ideas in a digestible way' - for anyone from the casual Jewish reader to the non-Jewish university student taking a course on Judaism. There is plenty in this book that will surprise even many well-read Jews, or recast common knowledge in a new light."" J., the Jewish News Weekly ""We've all been taught not to judge a book by its cover, but the cover images of ""Judaisms"" alert the reader that this is not your typical course reader on the Jewish religion...This book, which serves both as an easy-to-read text for undergrads as well as a more advanced selection for graduate students (footnotes are available online), articulates that today's Jewish community is vastly different than the one at the turn of the last century let alone a century ago."" -- Rabbi Jason Miller Rabbi With a Blog"


Hahn Tapper hopes the book will 'convey academic ideas in a digestible way' - for anyone from the casual Jewish reader to the non-Jewish university student taking a course on Judaism. There is plenty in this book that will surprise even many well-read Jews, or recast common knowledge in a new light. J., the Jewish News Weekly
