Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Broad Range of Viewpoints - Easy to Understand
This book presents many ideas about how Judaism relates to ecology. Although I am not Jewish I found all the selections interesting and easy to understand.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not what it claims to be.
I have only one way to describe this book - JUNK. Don't waste your money on it. There should be a "minus/negative" scoring, this one would get a - 10 stars.
