A New Promised Land by Hasia Diner, ISBN 0195158261
On September 19, 1934, baseball star Hank Greenberg refused to play for his team, the Detroit Tigers. Instead he chose to observe the Jewish holiday Yom Kippur. On that day he put his identity as a Jew over the most American of sports, and the Tiger fans rallied around his decision. Greenberg's story is just one of many in this chronicle of Jewish life in the United States. A New Promised Land reconstructs the multifaceted background and very American adaptations of this religious group, from the arrival in the New World in 1654 to the ordination of Sally Priesand as the first woman rabbi in the United States. Hasia Diner supplies fascinating details about Jewish religious traditions, holidays, and sacred texts--including bar and bat mitzvah celebrations and seder dinners, Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashana, the Talmud and the Torah. She also describes the development of American Jewish religious, political, and intellectual institutions--from the Daily Forward newspaper and the synagogues on...

Tough Choices: Facing the Challenge of Food Scarcity by Lester R. Brown, ISBN 0393315738
Food scarcity is emerging as the defining issue of the new era now unfolding, much as ideological conflict was the defining issue of the historical era that recently ended. More fundamentally, food scarcity may be the first major economic manifestation of an environmentally unsustainable global economy. An early hint of the shift to an economy of scarcity came in late April 1996, when wheat prices on the Chicago Board of Trade soared above $7 a bushel, the highest level in history and more than double the price a year earlier. Corn prices also doubled, moving above $5 a bushel, a new record. And the price of rice, the other major grain, was climbing. In this, the seventh volume in the Worldwatch Environmental Alert series, Lester Brown observes that prices were climbing because world carryover stocks of grain had fallen to 48 days of consumption, the lowest level on record. Production was falling behind demand. Brown, president of the Worldwatch Institute, argues that the continually expanding...
