(Newsweek) Isaac Stone Fish - A surprising trend in publishing over the last few years in China involves books purporting to reveal the business secrets of the Talmud, that capitalize on the widespread impression among Chinese that attributes of Judaism lead to success in the financial arts. Titles include Crack the Talmud: 101 Jewish Business Rules, The Illustrated Jewish Wisdom Book, and Know All of the Money-Making Stories of the Talmud. There's even a Talmud hotel in Taiwan - that features a copy of the book Talmud Business Success Bible in every room. While the Talmud mentions contract law, zoning, and problems involved with charging interest, it's not a get-rich-quick guide, says Rabbi Eliezer Diamond, associate professor of Talmud and rabbinics at the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York. "There aren't too many people in the Jewish Theological Seminary pulling in the big bucks." 2010-12-31 08:43:05Full Article
