About This Book
Like any novel societal phenomenon, the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) pandemic forced Jewish thinkers - rabbis, physicians, philosophers, and others - to examine whether this scourge raises new issues or problems for Judaism. The present volume provides a fairly full picture of the responses AIDS has solicited within Judaism on the theological, ethical and halakhic planes.
The volume consists of a comprehensive introduction by the editor, followed by almost all major texts bearing on AIDS and Judaism published between 1986 and 1995 in the United States, United Kingdom and Israel.
