If the dictionary word evokes the idea of encyclopedic knowledge and seriousness of the information, if the word love refers to the notions of proximity to the other and passion, then the "Dictionary lovers of Judaism" written by J. Attali he carries its name. The reader can not but be impressed by the familiarity of the author (who has never hidden his faith) with texts and the great voices of the Jewish faith and the will of him who is without doubt one built of the best brains of our generation to show its affiliation with the teachings of the fathers and thinkers of Judaism. It will certainly also be sensitive to the role played by the family of the author and by the recognition that bears his son. The evocation of the family close probably also responds to the law of any kind of love dictionary. However this book can also appear as only the first volume of a book which we begin to expect the appearance of a second, in the course of reading, as the focus is almost exclusively on fathers , thinkers and actors of Judaism, however, that complement some articles on the main highlights of the practice of that confession. The author also explains some fundamental concepts of Judaism and it is here that the reader is entitled to expect the publication of a second volume! He had been helpful to hear speak Jacques Attali on the role of Judaism in terms of culture, economics, international relations, politics, defense and security, definition of the law , including scientific and medical research, in short in key areas in which exerts human genius. While Attali he speaks of his work over how Judaism influences the life and thought of our society, but it had been interesting aspects of the theme should be subject to further developments. An exciting dictionary, although the extent of knowledge that implies the understanding of the work of Attali may dissuade some, while others will be inclined to fill their gaps beyond.
