The Jewish Phenomenon: Seven Keys to the Enduring Wealth of a People

Good read but some facts were incorrect the ethnicity of Abraham and Moses. It is time to admit that these men were black. It is written in plan site but still reported falsely.

After having read, The Jewish Phenomenon, by Steven Silbiger, I agree wholeheartedly with his assessment; namely, that the implementation of seven key principles of Jewish living is a doable recipe for success for anyone willing to implement the process.The Principles:1. Real Wealth is Portable: It's Knowledge2. Take Care of Your Own and They Will Take Care of You3. Successful People Are Professionals and Entrepreneurs4. Develop Your Verbal Confidence5. Be Selectively Extravagant but Prudently Frugal6. Celebrate Individuality: Encourage Individuality7. Have Something to Prove: A Drive to SucceedYes, I think the book pays a little too much lip service to the Jewish persecution theme; then again, it adds depth to the creation, application and implementation of the principles. The truth is, Jewish people have mastered survival and are to be admired for it. The accomplishments attributed to the Jewish culture are so completely out of step with their aggregate population that it truly represents a clear cultural phenomenon. If you're not a cultural hater and want to implement a set of successful concepts into your life this book helps. I'm looking forward to applying the principles in my life forever.

I purchased the Jewish Phenomenon twice. Unfortunately, I loan the book to a co-worker and my first copy was not returned. As a first time father, I cherish the principles outlined in this text. For anyone wishing to learn which steps to take for life enhancement, purchase the Phenomenon. In hindsight, I'm glad the first copy was able to enrich my worker's life. In fact, this is the type of book everyone should share.

This is a interesting primer for non-Jews who want to learn more about Jewish culture and practices. A good chronicle of the Jewish approach to money and wealth accumulation. As a Jew, I found it a bit simplistic, still it is well researched and I learned a few things.

This is a must read book for all who like to know the key to raising your children out of poverty.

A great book For anyone have any background or religion To understand.Very I opening About the Jewish religion And informative

I have many Jewish friends and have always marveled at their verbal abilities. I read this book for some insight into these talents. The details of how to develop these things are missing, but overall it is good for general direction. Every night I question my kids about their day and beliefs and encourage them to explain to me their thoughts. Many reviewers have missed the point of this book, exclaiming that the scope should have been broader. Perhaps more description of Jewish sub-groups would have explained more but that does not diminish the value of this book.This view into Jewish life is interesting as is the Yiddish dictionary at the end.

A+

This book promises a lot but delivers less than it promises.It is worth a read, to understand Jewish success stories as well as Jewish successful business professionals as and entrepreurs.However, I believe more effort should have been concentrated on the topic rather than past and present brilliant Jewish professionals and entrepreneurs or the Yiddish language.

Great book, such an eye opener. Very valuable lessons and instructions

This book is brilliant, i learned a lot about finances and management.The mind set controls our achievements.

I love the book
