{"product_id":"mother-of-the-pound-memoirs-on","title":"MOTHER OF THE POUND: MEMOIRS ON","description":"This book chronicles the 1950 exodus of the Iraqi Jews that was sparked by a heroic young woman who became known from Baghdad to Jerusalem as \"The Mother of the Pound.\" Her story provided the inspiration for this book, which explores the story of the Jews of Iraq, their deep historical roots, their fate in the twentieth century and their defining traditions and spiritual values. To that story, the author brings both intimate knowledge and unique insights gained in nearly three decades as a practicing psychiatrist educated in Lebanon, Israel and the US. Told in a personal and engaging fashion, the book provides a panoramic picture of this segment of the Jewish Diaspora. The author's psychological perspective gives new insight into the evolution of culture and issues of religion and spiritual life. Finally, the book emphasizes the importance of pride in heritage and offers inspiration and direction for all who confront discrimination and prejudice today.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0872031543\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 4EKGU900DRCD_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Kazzaz, David\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
