{"product_id":"sins-of-omission-carol-goodman-kaufman-9780813340883","title":"Sins of Omission: The Jewish Community's Reaction to Domestic Violence","description":"In a congregation of devoted worshippers gathered for Shabbat services at the local synagogue, it may be difficult to accept how many wives go home with their husbands to ongoing physical and emotional abuse. In \u003ci\u003eSins of Omission\u003c\/i\u003e, author Carol Goodman Kaufman offers a compelling investigation of the Jewish community's reaction -- or nonreaction -- to domestic violence. Concerned with the sins of the community more than the sins of the abuser, Goodman Kaufman finds that the Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform rabbis and community leaders are not doing enough and are not informed enough to help the abused women in their congregations get the support, protection, and guidance they need. Through her many insightful interviews with survivors of abuse, rabbis, and lay community leaders, the author takes a hard look at the Jewish community, its rules, regulations, and followers, and discovers the ways in which it helps and hinders victims of abuse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carol Goodman Kaufman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0813340888\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780813340883\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Basic Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.44h x 5.92w x 0.89d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/08\/2003 pg. 64","brand":"Carol Goodman Kaufman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44059824587007,"sku":"9780813340883","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0a1c31d4-d9df-49c9-8624-60b098e6a654.jpg?v=1685060544","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sins-of-omission-carol-goodman-kaufman-9780813340883","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
