Product Description

BOUND/ NO DUST JACKET

Before Rabbi Yisrael Lipkin of Salant, the study of mussar was the pastime of the elite. Reb Yisrael Salanter saw the need for mussar (some translate this as rebuke or instruction--it's sort of like constructive criticism), to reinvigorate the Jewish people through serious character improvement. He lit a holy fire in Jewish hearts. The "Mussar Movement" expanded, gaining adherents in one yeshivah (Jewish school) after the other. Today, works of mussar inspire tens of thousands of Jews. Thousands of miles away and many generations later, the ripples created by these this righteous leader beckon us to follow his example. This beautifully told biography - written especially for young people - is a road map for growth.
