"What heart is to the body, the Jewish people are to the  world," wrote Rabbi Yehuda Halevy, author of the Kuzari. This philosophical work  is almost like a novel; it is written as a debate between a Christian, Moslem,  and Jew who are presenting the relative merits of their religions before the  8th century king of the Khazars.

Jew's meticulous answers emerges a picture of a religion of  joy, accomplishment, and universal love of mankind.
