Haaretz reports:
In the Internet and digital information age, few publishers are willing to take on major publishing projects, like new encyclopedias. Thus, it is surprising to note the recent release of a highly ambitious project, conceived six years ago, that required the investment of hundreds of thousands of dollars: A five-volume encyclopedia entitled, “New Jewish Time: Jewish Culture in the Era of Secularism.” The encyclopedia, which examines secular Jewish culture over the last 200 years, may occupy a place of honor on the Jewish library shelf.
