  • Wonderful and powerful literature chefdeure!!!

  • this is an exposition of the Jewish struggle and effort amidst a chaotic society. Quite admirable.

  • Fantastic book... Highly recommended 

  • Would be interesting to compare Yuri Slezkine's categories for his analysis with Jane Jacobs' for a more general analysis of traditional (feudal) society.
