Reviews

"Written by international scholars, each entry contains a useful bibliography, while superb color and black-and-white illustrations enhance the text.  The eclectic content covers holidays, material artifacts, and mythical beliefs and offers country studies and biographies of notable Jewish ethnographers, as well as much more.  An outstanding ready-reference source presenting hard-to-find information, this work will interest students, academics, and general readers. Highly recommended." -- Library Journal

"There are many resources on aspects of Jewish culture and folklore around the world, but this comprehensive, accessible work may be the first to bring together the traditions from many lands and across time. . . The clearly written entries include major themes, beliefs, and traditions from cultures around the world, both contemporary and historical. . . Extensive appendixes, sources, and an accurate index reflect the diversity and richness of the field." -- Booklist
