The Topic will be the modern State of Israel and our relationship with the Muslim World. What exactly is our connection to Israel historically and how does our tradition impact the issues in the Middle East today. We meet every first Tuesday in the Library at 7:00pm for some enlightening discussion and excellent bagels. Snacks are of course always provided. No charge.

Book Review
Time: 12:00 pm
Rebecca Lunstroth will discuss Intuition by Allegra Goodman. Rebecca is the Assistant Director of the McGovern Center for Health, Humanities and the Human Spirit at the UT Medical School, Houston. She frequently lectures on the legal and ethical issues in health care.
Intuition is a riveting contemporary novel which centers on ethical problems in a Cambridge cancer research lab. The artfully drawn characters come into conflict with each other when fraud is suspected. Reputations, funding and personal relationships hang in the balance as the narrative moves to its close.
Please plan to join us for this final meeting of the season. Bring your lunch if you wish, and we will provide dessert and coffee.
