Examining the personal journeys of biblical and historical figures such as Moses, Maimonides, Abraham Lincoln and Martin Buber--as well as the author's own personal experience with despair--it looks at brokenness as an inescapable element of the human condition. It traces the path of suffering from despair to depression to desperation to the turning point--healing--when first-hand knowledge of suffering can be transformed into blessing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elie Kaplan Spitz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1580234364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781580234368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jewish Lights Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.04h x 5.22w x 0.52d","brand":"Elie Kaplan Spitz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44068644552959,"sku":"9781580234368","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0aa49f44-a4df-41cc-aa82-402eddae114e.jpg?v=1685420196","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/healing-from-despair-elie-kaplan-spitz-9781580234368","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
