Leaves from the Jewish Logic Tree
The Bomb Thief and Other Curious Cases is an introduction to the exciting field of Talmudic analysis. Based on the interactive lectures of Rabbi Yitzchak Menachem Karlinsky, it explores how traditional principles of Jewish logic can be applied to the fascinating and sometimes astonishing cases that only real life can produce. These include:
- the thief who stole a bomb
- the doctor who saved the patient he was trying to kill
- the student who poisoned his lunch to catch a sandwich thief
- and the drunk who was checked into a hotel without his knowledge.
