Book Synopsis

Here, the Chief Rabbi has selected his favorite "Thoughts for the Day" for publication.

Rabbi Sacks' well-deserved reputation as a writer and broadcaster in the UK has followed him to North America with the success of The Dignity of Difference. His clear, calm voice brings hope and encouragement to all of us struggling to come to terms with modern, turbulent times.

In the UK, that calm voice is frequently heard on the country's most popular morning BBC radio news show. He regular presents a "Thought for the Day" in which he addresses a current issue with characteristic brevity and clarity.

The result is a book that will appeal to a very wide audience - people with religious belief and those with little or none.

Review Quotes

"The genius of this collection is to be found not least in the diversity of the subjects covered ... These meditations have justifiably earned Sacks an important place in our national consciousness." --The Tablet
