Whistleblowers and the Bomb

Whistleblowers and the Bomb

Yoel Cohen

Pluto Press

pokkari
Mordechai Vanunu was a technician working at a nuclear arms research project who revealed to the world in 1986 that Israel was secretly producing nuclear armaments. After the disclosure of the affair by the Sunday Times, Vanunu was kidnapped by Mossad, tried behind closed doors and imprisoned for 18 years for treason. He was finally released in 2004. This authoritative account of the Vanunu affair uses first-hand material from the trial, and draws on an interview that the author has had with Vanunu since his release. The evidence presents a vivid account of the problems of nuclear secrecy in a democracy. It also provides a rare glimpse into official attitudes to nuclear secrecy in Israel. This is a new edition of a book that was hailed as an authoritative account of the Vanunu affair on its original release. It is now thoroughly revised and updated, to offer a timely reassessment of a world-famous whistleblower and the questions he has brought to light.

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

Focused on the triangular relationship between rabbis, journalists and the public, this book analyses each group’s role in influencing the agenda around religion in Israel.The book draws upon the author's original research, comprising an analysis of the coverage of religion on four Israeli news websites, a series of surveys of rabbis, journalists, and the public, as well as a large number of interviews conducted with a range of stakeholders: community rabbis, teacher rabbis, and religious court judges; reporters, editors, and spokespersons; and the Israeli Jewish public. Key questions include:What are rabbis’ philosophical views of the media?How does the media define news about Judaism?What aspect of news about religion and spirituality interest the public?How do spokespersons and rabbis influence the news agenda?How is the triangular relationship between rabbis, journalists and the public being altered by the digital age?Despite a lack of understanding about mass media behaviour among many rabbis, and, concurrently, a lack of knowledge about religion among many journalists, it is argued that there is shared interest between the two groups, both in support of mass-media values like the right to know and freedom of expression. It is further argued that the public's attitude to news about religion is significant in determining what journalists should publish.The book will be of interest to those studying mass communications, the media, Judaism and Israeli society, as well as researchers of media and religion.

God, Jews and the Media

God, Jews and the Media

Routledge
2015

In order to understand contemporary Jewish identity in the twenty-first century, one needs to look beyond the Synagogue, the holy days and Jewish customs and law to explore such modern phenomena as mass media and their impact upon Jewish existence. This book delves into the complex relationship between Judaism and the mass media to provide a comprehensive examination of modern Jewish identity in the information age. Covering Israel as well as the Diaspora populations of the US and UK, the author looks at journalism, broadcasting, advertising and the internet to give a wide-ranging analysis of how the Jewish religion and Jewish people have been influenced by the media age. He tackles questions such as: What is the impact of Judaism on mass media? How is the religion covered in the secular Israeli media? Does the coverage strengthen religious identity? What impact does the media have upon secular-religious tensions? Chapters explore how the impact of Judaism is to be found particularly in the religious media in Israel – haredi and modern Orthodox – and looks at the evolution of new patterns of religious advertising, the growth and impact of the internet on Jewish identity, and the very legitimacy of certain media in the eyes of religious leaders. Also examined are such themes as the marketing of rabbis, the `Holyland’ dimension in foreign media reporting from Israel, and the media’s role in the Jewish Diaspora. An important addition to the existing literature on the nature of Jewish identity in the modern world, this book will be of great interest to scholars of media studies, media and religion, sociology, Jewish studies, religion and politics, as well as to the broader Jewish and Israeli communities.

Tommy Turtle's Brainpower: Promoting Children's Social and Emotional Competence

Tommy Turtle's Brainpower: Promoting Children's Social and Emotional Competence

Yoel Elizur

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform

nidottu
How can we teach children to control their anger and calm themselves in situations of frustration? How can children learn to resolve disputes in a constructive way? Tommy Turtle's Brainpower method is a captivating 2-chapter story that promotes children's social and emotional competence. It begins when Tommy, a playful and endearing turtle is frustrated and "Hot Anger takes control of his head". Once Tommy blows up, his friends are upset and turn away from him. Ms. Giraffe, the pre-school teacher, steps in to calm the situation and to set limits. She kindly offers to teach Tommy a 3-step way for working out problems. As Tommy follows Ms. Giraffe' clear and simple instructions, he applies the three universal steps that help children (and adults) to improve self-regulation and problem solving skills: stop, cool down, and finally think and act responsibly. In the second chapter, Tommy learns how to make up with friends following the loss of self-control. He bravely faces the fear of being shamed, asks for forgiveness and makes amends. This book includes playing cards that facilitate conversation with children about forgiveness and making-up. There are also guidelines designed for parents, teachers, and therapists for applying "the Brainpower Method". The guidelines were derived from Hitkashrut: a research-based early-intervention program that successfully reduced young children's' behavior problems and enhanced their self-regulation and social skills. The book concludes with a poster that presents the 3-step way.

Ancient Place Names in the Holy Land

Ancient Place Names in the Holy Land

Yoel Elitzur

Eisenbrauns
2004
sidottu
That many ancient toponyms in the Holy Land have survived for thousands of years, right up to modern times, is a remarkable and unique phenomenon, unparalleled in neighboring countries, such as Egypt, Mesopotamia, or Asia Minor. Preserved toponymy provides a basis for research in the historical geography of the country and is also of major importance for studies in the history of Hebrew and Aramaic, being a kind of ancient “recording” of an archaic linguistic inventory. In addition, it has many implications for a wide variety of other scholarly fields, such as Bible studies, Rabbinics, Qumran and Samaritan studies, early Christianity, Arabic and Islam. This reserve of preserved place-names is therefore frequently consulted and used by scholars for their purposes. Surprisingly, however, despite the importance of this subject, there have been very few attempts to “put things in order,” and for many years there have been no rules that would help to understand the changes that occur in toponyms. Accordingly, the prevailing situation in the field of historical geography is one of near-anarchy; lacking hard and fast rules, scholars could find support for their identification of an ancient toponym in any somewhat similar Arabic name. In order to break this vicious circle of conjectures founded on dubious linguistic assumptions, producing “preservation laws” themselves provide an alleged basis for historical identification, and so on, Elitzur has tried, first and foremost, to lay down objective criteria for the selection of positive identifications. On this basis, he has built up a corpus of 177 toponyms representing positive or almost-positive identifications, upon which this study is based. Sixty of these toponyms are then reviewed in depth, tracing their documentation in all languages, throughout recorded history; in the process, the author has tried to locate and analyze whatever changes occurred and when. The linguistic conclusions from the material follow, arranged according to the standard layout of grammar books. Innovative conclusions and ideas in the context of historical geography emerged in the course of the study are listed alphabetically in the last part of the volume.

Strictly Kosher Reading

Strictly Kosher Reading

Yoel Finkelman

Academic Studies Press

For centuries, fervently observant Jewish communities have produced thousands of works of Jewish law, thought, and spirituality. But in recent decades, the literature of America’s Haredi [ultra-Orthodox] community has taken on brand-new forms: selfhelp books, cookbooks, monthly magazines, parenting guides, biographies, picture books, even adventure stories and spy novels— all produced by Haredi men and women, for the Haredi readership. What’s changed? Why did these works appear, and what do they mean to the community that produces and consumes them? How has the Haredi world, as it seeks fidelity to unchanging tradition, so radically changed what it writes and what it reads? In answering these questions, Strictly Kosher Reading points to a central paradox in contemporary Haredi life. Haredi Jewry sets itself apart, claiming to reject modern secular culture as dangerous and threatening to everything Torah stands for. But in practice, Haredi popular literature reveals a community thoroughly embedded in contemporary values. Popular literature plays a critical role in helping Haredi Jews to understand themselves as different, even as it shows them to be very much the same.

Meditation empowers us to transcend our material mind-set and touch the Infinite and Eternal."True meditation transforms the way we see reality.... It touches the place inside us where a spark of the Eternal dwells. Meditation unites us with our true Self." from the IntroductionThe life of meditation is much more than the act of sitting for half an hour or forty-five minutes and looking inward. It is a whole way of life. Through meditation we learn to live in a heightened awareness and walk at all times in the presence of God.Rabbi Yoel Glick brings wisdom from personal experience and Eastern traditions to illuminate and vitalize familiar Jewish rituals, vocabulary and imagery. He provides specific guidelines and practical techniques grounded in Judaism for each stage of the life of meditation, outlining the inner processes we encounter and the questions we face: How does meditation help us connect with the Collective Jewish Soul?What happens in our mind, body and soul when we meditate?How do we resist the pull of a material mind-set and live in expanded consciousness?What does it feel like to reach union with our spiritual source?How do we remain aware of God's living presence in our everyday life?"
