Rachel Adler holds a joint appointment at the University of Southern California and Hebrew Union College.
[Engendering Judaism] is dazzling in its inventiveness and analytic
power. --Judith Plaskow, The Women's Review of Books
"Summarizing the thinking of a lifetime, Engendering Judaism is the
first major work of feminist Jewish theology since Plaskow's
Standing Again at Sinai." --Alicia Ostriker, Lilith
"Rachel Adler has written not only the most sophisticated and
important book in the field of Jewish feminist thought but a study
that can serve as a model for all feminist theological writings. .
. . Her work brings us to a higher level of sophistication that
will undoubtedly inspire fascinating discussion among Jewish
feminists and offer some serious challenges to Christian
feminists." --Susannah Heschel, Journal of the American Academy of
Religion
"Rachel Adler has finally published what will surely be the major
text of the new Jewish feminism. Her experience and her vision are
synoptic, always reverencing tradition, but solidly feminist in
spirit and ecumenical in tone." --Arnold Jacob Wolf, Judaism
"[Adler's] goal is not judgment and condemnation, but rather
restoration and transmutation. 'Engendering Judaism' means for
Adler the identification and development of transformative
resources within the Jewish tradition in a shared, communal
process, with women and men working together toward a more just
future." --P. K. Steinfeld, Choice
