Judaism as a way of life is the subject of a study published by the United Nations Educational, Social and Cultural Organization as part of its series on the race question and modern thought. The pamphlet, “Jewish Thought as a Factor in Civilization” by Leon Roth, was issued in English, French and Spanish.
The manuscript of the pamphlet was obtained from the culture department of the World Jewish Congress. Mr. Roth is a professor of philosophy and was once rector of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. He is the author of a number of works in English and Hebrew on education and philosophy.
