Compiled by Nechemia Coopersmith.
Shmooze is masterfully written - clear, concise and thoughtful, Nechema Coopersmith has given the Jewish world a time-efficient and provocative tool for engaging spiritually inquisitive Jews in absorbing and productive discourse.
Every individual concerned with Jewish continuity should enthusiastically welcome Shmooze into his or her intellectual repertoire.
Rabbi Michel Twerski, Milwaukee
I believe Shmooze is a delightful, creative, positive learning and teaching tool. Raising issues in a Jewish philosophical context, it offers a serious contribution to informal education on campus. Shmooze provokes thoughtful discussion between Jewish friends and families, not only by taking a careful look at significant life issues, but by providing Jewish background sources to inform those discussions.
Richard Joel, President and International Director of Hillel, The Foundation for Jewish Campus Life
An absolute gem! Shmooze has proven to be an indispensable educational tool for sparking impromptu discussions on campus, at home and with inquisitive Jewish youth group participants.
