Sacks's central theme is that "Judaism is not a theory, a system, a set of speculative propositions, an 'ism.' It is a call, and it bears our name." Sacks formulates his thesis: that over the millennia, Jews have come to define themselves their disasters, expulsions, persecutions, and holocausts, not their survival and strength. In a clear, steady style that can also soar, Sacks explains why this disaster-driven thinking denies the beauty and strength of Judaism.
