Unsettled: An Anthropology of the Jews

Far reaching, intellectually rich, and passionately written, Unsettled takes the world as its canvas for depicting the Jewish people and faith. With historical insight and vivid storytelling, renowned anthropologist Melvin Konner charts the Jews through hostile or accepting societies to make their mark throughout history—from Bronze Age pastoral tribes to Roman oppression, from the Holocaust to the creation of Israel and the flourishing of Jews in America, with sojourns in Spain, Arabia, China, India, Ethiopia, and more.
