My officemate, long-time friend, and good colleague David Blatner was interviewed along with his rabbi co-author in the Seattle Times about their title, _Judaism for Dummies_. I gave David a lot of grief about the title, marking it as the height of oxymoronism (due to the heritage of learning, not our smartypantsness), and he took it good naturedly. It's a great book that I'm still working through and learning from. (Follow the link to the book for the table of contents and description as well; they also have Joy of Jewish dot com.)
