God Was Right: How Modern Social Science Proves the Torah Is True

＂In God Was Right, Gerson examines the Torah on the basis of what it declares itself to be-a guidebook, which identifies, asks and answers the practical, relevant and important questions that enable us to live our best lives. Gerson shows in detail that the Torah’s questions and claims are exactly those asked and investigated by modern social scientists. Their work has enabled perhaps the biggest discovery of all: The Torah is true-absolutely, comprehensively, and enthusiastically so＂--
