A grand debate, like in a virtual Athens's Agora where old and hot issues are discussed, sometimes also in a dramatically, cynical, sarcastic and humoristic ways and from which a collage was created - a portrait of mankind. The book describes in an innovative way, myth and reality, the struggle of mankind towards progress; the mechanisms, the forces, the hurdles and dangers. Will humanity reach its goal to grasp the ultimate stage of knowledge? Or at least a stage that ensures mankind survival? Or will we collapse before that. Those questions and thoughts emerge from all those bits and pieces synthesized into one whole, taking into consideration the individualâs and societyâs points of view (in micro and macro levels.)

The committed Jew confronts many weighty questions when plotting a personal course in life: What is Judaism's role in the modern world? How can I best make my own individual contribution? What are my responsibilities to humanity, the Jewish people, the Torah and myself? How should I balance these different demands? How can I infuse my life with spirituality and build a strong relationship with God? In these probing and inspiring discourses, Rabbi Aharon Lichtenstein addresses these other questions. Eschewing simplistic black-and-white approaches, he explores the issues with depth and sensitivity. Based firmly on halakhic sources, yet appreciating the best of Western culture, he presents an ideology marked by balance and complexity. While demanding maximal spiritual attainment, Rabbi Lichtenstein champions tolerance of those with different approaches; and while steeped in the eternal values of Jewish tradition, he remains cognizant of the challenges and opportunities of the contemporary era.
