Survey of the American Jewish experience. Its focus is macrocosmic and it uses broad brush strokes to paint its picture. Its purpose is to give the student a notion of the flow of that history and the central problems with which it concerns itself. Its approach to various topics is both chronological and topical, and there is little hesitation in turning to related social science disciplines for answers that history does not provide. Students who are interested in the microcosmic detail, the nitty gritty, are urged to consult the bibliography which contains many references to research works on specific events.
