“One of the best of Californian novelists, who has enjoyed the book, writes as follows:
“ ‘It is an excellent round-up and exposition of all the vagrant—and vague—theories and history of the subject. It makes the evolution and logical being of the question perfectly clear. Whereas in most Jewish minds Zionism means a belief in Palestine as the native soil of all Jews and the refuge for the oppressed, the motive here expressed is that by drawing the Jewish soul to its ancient Fatherland, it will create a spiritual center for all Jewry.’ ”—Daily Fresno Republican.

Jewish Philanthropy
An Exposition Of Principles And Methods Of Jewish Social Service In The United States
By Boris D. Bogen, Ph.D.
Cloth, 12mo, $2.00
This book is an attempt to meet the demand on the part of those who are engaged in or are interested in Jewish social service, for a statement of the principles evolved through the experience of the last two decades in various philanthropic efforts of the Jews of this country. It is primarily a compilation of the different ideas expressed by the leaders of the movements, as well as a presentation of the actual practical experiences that were met in the different lines of philanthropic activity.
As the first attempt in this direction the work will render a great service in clarifying the indefinite views in vogue at present among Jewish Social workers.
