Typically JewishIs laughter essential to Jewish identity? Do Jews possess special radar for recognizing members of the tribe? Since Jews live longer and make love more often, why don't more people join the tribe?

Is laughter essential to Jewish identity? Do Jews possess special radar for recognizing members of the tribe? Since Jews live longer and make love more often, why don't more people join the tribe? "More deli than deity" writer Nancy Kalikow Maxwell poses many such questions in eight chapters--"Worrying," "Kvelling," "Dying," "Noshing," "Laughing," "Detecting," "Dwelling," and "Joining"--exploring what it means to be "typically Jewish." While unearthing answers from rabbis, researchers, and her assembled Jury on Jewishness (Jewish friends she roped into conversation), she--and we--make a variety of discoveries. For example:- Jews worry about continuity, even though Rabbi Mordechai of Lechovitz prohibited even that: "All worrying is forbidden, except to worry that one is worried."
- Kvell-worthy fact: About 75 percent of American Jews give to charity versus 63 percent of Americans as a whole.
- Since reciting Kaddish brought secular Jews to synagogue, the rabbis, aware of their captive audience, moved the prayer to the end of the service.
- Who's Jewish? About a quarter of Nobel Prize winners, an estimated 80 percent of comedians at one point, and the winner of Nazi Germany's Most Perfect Aryan Child Contest.
Readers will enjoy learning about how Jews feel, think, act, love, and live. They'll also schmooze as they use the book's "Typically Jewish, Atypically Fun" discussion guide.

Best LULU dupe

good fit for cheap!
Special Size: Short Sleeve, Size: Small, Color: White
I like the material it’s more athletic, not see through, cuts off at a flattering length, good stretch my only point deduction is that I wish it took in a bit more in the waist to fit a bit better
I wear a 32D bra with a 25-26in waist

Cute but beware of the length
Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: X-Large, Color: Bright Red, Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: X-Large, Color: Bright Red
It’s cute but the fit is off. If you’re short like me (5’4) then the leggings and sleeves are long but overall it’s cute. I just don’t wear it often because of the fit.

Great fabric!
Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: Medium, Color: Navy
Great quality! Perfect for athleisure wear or a workout at the gym. It is a bit shorter than I thought, but still fine for every day wear.
