Reviews
"A fascinating and provocative survey. . . . Chudacoff builds up a scathing critique of modern parents' intrusion in children's play." - New York Times Book Review, "Examining locations as diverse as New York, San Francisco and Moscow, Aviv and probe what makes Jews feel "at home."" - Lilith, New Jews makes the provocative argument that the Israel-Diaspora dichotomy no longer exists. In a series of engaging ethnographies of Jewish communities in America, Russia and Israel, Aviv and Shneer reveal a new generation of Jews embarked on a renaissance liberated from old ideologies and committed to creating homes where they live. A celebration of pluralism, this sure-to-be controversial book finds Jewish unity not in slogans but in the common search for new identities., "Offers a new way to look at contemporary Jewry, not just its present complicated realities, but the history behind the recent departures. Well researched, deeply contextualized, and written in a sprightly manner, New Jews demonstrates that Jews at the beginning of the twenty-first century have created new spaces, new places, and new faces in which to live and by which to present themselves." -Hasia R. Diner,author of The Jews of the United States, 1654-2000, "At a time when children's play seems under siege, Howard Chudacoff's historythe first of its kindarrives to tell us what we are letting slip away. . . . His history demonstrates that the topic of play is anything but trivial. And by showing us where we've been, he can help us decide where, as a culture, we want to go." - Wilson Quarterly, ( " New Jews is a thoughtful, persuasive case for why the Diaspora matters." )-( Secular Culture ),(), ( " New Jews makes the provocative argument that the Israel-Diaspora dichotomy no longer exists.

His critique is increasingly echoed today by parents, educators and children's advocates who warn that organized activities, overscheduling and excessive amounts of homework are crowding out free time and constricting children's imaginations and social skills." - The New York Times, ( "In tracing the history of play over the American centuries, Chudacoff makes the mid-seventeenth century sound like our own time, only better." )-( Slate.com ),(), "In this wonderfully polished, scholarly treatment of children and play from Colonial times to the present, Chudacoff uses excellent historical methodology and perceptive psychological insights, putting primary sources to good use, as he presents an illustrated, chronological history of children at play from ages six to 12." - Library Journal (starred review)

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
