Kosher? That means the rabbi blessed it, right? Not exactly.In this captivating account of a Bible-based practice that hasgrown into a multibillions-dollar industry, journalist Sue Fishkofftravels throughout America and to Shanghai, China, to find out whoeats kosher food, who produces it, who is responsible for itscertification, and how this fascinating world continues to evolve.She explains why 86 percent of the 11.2 million Americans whoregularly buy kosher food are not observant Jews—they are Muslims,Seventh-day Adventists, vegetarians, people with food allergies,and consumers who pay top dollar for food they believe “answers toa higher authority.” Fishkoff interviews food manufacturers, rabbinic supervisors, andritual slaughterers; meets with eco-kosher adherents who go beyondtraditional requirements to produce organic chicken andpasture-raised beef; sips boutique kosher wine in Napa Valley;talks to shoppers at an upscale kosher supermarket in Brooklyn; andmarches with unemployed workers at the n

A wide-ranging, provocative study of how our notions ofdemocracy, freedom, and tolerance are threatened during political,social, and economic crises. In this ambitious history, Jay Feldman takes us from therun-up to World War I and its anti-German hysteria through theSeptember 11th attacks and Arizona’s current anti-immigrationmovement. What we see is a striking pattern of elected officialsand private citizens alike inflaming pervasive American fears andprejudices to ostracize minorities, silence dissent, and stem thegrowth of civil rights and liberties. Among the many examplesFeldman discusses are the government’s first efforts, during theDepression, to deport and “repatriate” Mexicans and MexicanAmericans; President Franklin Roosevelt’s order of “summaryapprehension” of 112,000 people during World War II; and theviciousness of the Cold War anticommunist campaign and theconsequent Lavender Scare, in which thousands of gay governmentemployees were fired on suspicion of “moral wea

Wall Street scandals. Fights over taxes. Racial resentments. ALakers-Celtics championship. The Karate Kid topping the box-officecharts. Bon Jovi touring the country. These words could describeour current moment—or the vaunted iconography of three decadespast.

Today’s mindless militarism and hypernarcissism, Sirota argues,first became the norm when an ’80s generation weaned on Ramboone-liners and “Just Do It” exhortations embraced a newreligion—with comic books, cartoons, sneaker commercials,videogames, and
