Book Review: Rise and Decline of Civilizations
Rise and Decline of Civilizations: Lessons for the Jewish People by Shalom Salomon Wald received an excellent review in San Diego Jewish World.
Reviewer Fred Reiss, Ed.D. writes:
"Rise and Decline of Civilizations could not come at a more appropriate time. . . . Within its well-constructed chapters Rise and Decline of Civilizations repeatedly stresses the idea that we can learn from history, carefully examines modern-day problems through theoretically-crafted historical frameworks, and progressively lays out numerous examples of how civilizations have successfully and unsuccessfully delayed their decline and death."
