The book talks that I saw today were done really quite well. Interestingly two out of the six books that my group choose to use, were holocaust related. I think it is interesting that books regarding the holocaust are being released within the last 10 years. I wonder if this is due to the fact that many of the holocaust survivors are now passing away and they don’t want to people to forget the tragedy that occurred; or if the idea of holocaust from contemporary Zionist thought, that has moved into the mainstream American religious ideology, has begun moving into the educational and educational literature as well? If this is so, it may not necessarily be a bad thing, I wonder by what motivations, and political/popular forces that this changing world view is occurring?
