| Sumario: | This book is a history, an indictment, a lament, and an appeal, focusing on the messianic trend in Lubavitch hasidism. It records the shattering of one of Judaism's core beliefs and the remarkable equanimity with which the standard-bearers of Orthodoxy have allowed it to happen. This is a development of striking importance for the history of religions, and it is an earthquake inthe history of Judaism. David Berger describes the unfolding of this historic phenomenon and proposes a strategy to contain it. |
