The purpose of this book is to present the attitudes on wifebeating that can be found in Jewish texts. As Naomi Graetz shows, rabbinic responses to wifebeating in the Jewish community are not monolithic. The author writes: "This work first examines the biblical and post~biblical exegetical (rnishnah, talmud, midrash) as sources of the metaphor of battering. Although women are not literally battered in these sources justification for abuse can be clearly inferred from some of these sources in that they promote an attitude that condones battering, hence the use of the term 'metaphoric battering'. "The first sources to deal extensively with the problem of wifebeating are the responsa literature in the Jewish legal tradition (halacha), which start in Geonic times (9th century C.E.) and continue through today. Rabbinic responses to wife beating can be categorized as follows: Acceptance, Rejection, Denial, Apologetics, and Evasion. Although most rabbinic sages deal strictly with the phenomenon or else justify its existence. Maimonides is most often cited in this context as a rabbi who says that when a woman does not perform her household duties, it is permissible to hit her (even with a stick). "Tragically for a Jewish woman, even those rabbis who categorically oppose the beating of wives are not always willing to see wifebeating as a justified reason for forcing the husband to give his wife a Jewish bill of divorce (get). This means that for women they must stay in an abusive relationship longer than it is safe for them to do so. Many agunot (anchored or chained women) have been created as a result of those rabbis who are unwilling to use halachic means to free wives from oppressive husbands. At the end of the book a takkanah (halakhic amendment) is proposed as a suggestion for religious leaders to alleviate the serious problem of trapped women and to redress the imbalance found in traditional Jewish marriages.". …

Binding is lightly shaken. Dust jacket is very good. A few dog-earred pages . . . . . . . . . Personality Development and Psychotherapy in Our Diverse Society comprehensively explores the vicissitudes of culture, ethnicity, language, gender, and social class as contextual influences on personality development, psychopathology, and the provision of mental health services in our pluralistic society. Professors Javier and Herron achieve a balanced presentation of the issues by including contributions from renowned scholars, practitioners, and researchers whose analyses lead to different views on the roles of different factors. I applaud the editors' success in creating in a single volume an integrated multicultural perspective for analyzing complex relationships. It should be required reading for those interested in cultural diversity and mental health and especially for those who provide mental health services. -- June Chisolm, Ph.D., Pace University . . . . . . . .
