About This Text

Author: Jonathan Sacks
What are our duties to others, to society, and to humanity? How can people live meaningful lives in an age of global uncertainty and instability? In To Heal a Fractured World, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks offers answers to these questions by looking at the ethics of responsibility. In his signature plainspoken, accessible style, Rabbi Sacks shares traditional interpretations of the Bible, Jewish law, and theology, as well as the works of philosophers and ethicists from other cultures, to examine what constitutes morality and moral behavior.
