The Way of Torah: An Introduction to Judaism | Jacob Neusner
This classic text from one of the leading Judaic scholars today, The Way of the Torah introduces students to Judaism with a three-pronged approach. Neusner defines Judaism through time, showing its changes and development. He then introduces students to the classic texts of Judaism, while going beyond the Old Testament. Finally, the Torah and Judaism is presented in its living context. It is the only interpretive work that addresses Judaism within the context of the study of religion whereas other texts use only an historical or primary source approach.
