Review title: Essential reading for an understanding of Hasidism
Product review: See the Kirkus review for a good description of the book's contents. Professor Heilman takes the reader deep into the ultra orthodox Hasidim of Israel and presents a remarkably balanced picture, often content to let them speak for themselves. While he starts mainly with the Belzers, there are protraits of some of the other Hasidic sects, including the extreme Reb Arelach Hasidim whose women shave their heads. The chaper on sex is worth the price of the book. An absolutely riveting and brilliant book which is essential for anyone who wants an understanding of the ultra right wing Hasidim, who, by the end of the century, may outnumber other Jews.
