Summary:
This is a fairly up-to-date and highly readable introduction to the Talmud, the age-old storehouse of Jewish wisdom.

Chapters include: The Talmud as Literature; The Forerunners of the Talmud; The Talmud In Its Historical Setting; The Theological Elements in the Talmud; Social Ethics in the Talmud; Personal Morality in the Talmud; The Jurisprudence of the Talmud; and, Human Wisdom in the Talmud.
