I have always had a deep respect for the Chosen People. Mr Silbiger was able to present the facts in a readable and comprehendable form. Success comes with purpose and deliberate commitment. This is the message I take away. The wealth in coin is just a byproduct of developing a rich culture of living.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Oy Veh!By Merle H. SchmidtThis book was very interesting to me as a secular Jew. I could see some of my behaviors; despite the fact that I have spent most of MTV life with non Jews. I certainly was a Jewish mother; and have great kids as a result. Love the Yiddish words. Very funny! I would recommend this book for budding Jewish mothers; and those who want some insight on the success of the Jewish people as a group. Merle1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
