Lord Jakobovits in Conversation by Michael Shashar
A dialogue book with the former chief Rabbi of the British Commonwealth, the late Lord Dr, Immanuel Jakobovits. Lord Jakobovits was born in Germany, studied in England and served as Chief Rabbi in Ireland, Rabbi in New York and Chief Rabbi in London. His education, Jewish and general, was much broader than that of average Israeli Rabbis. He was very involved in general human affairs, dealing widely with Jews and non-Jews alike who consulted him on ethical dilemmas, especially in medical matters.
Michael Shashar (Sharshavsky) (February 5, 1933 - May 25, 2006) was an Israeli journalist and thinker, born in Berlin, Germany to Dr. Shimon Shearshevsky. When he was two, his family immigrated to Israel.
He served as a spokesman for the military administration in Judea and Samaria in the period following the Six-Day War, and served as a spokesman for the Bnei Akiva youth movement in Switzerland and Austria, and later was the assistant to the defense minister, Moshe Dayan, who later served as minister of communications and media advisor to President Ephraim Katzir and the Israeli consul in New York.
Michael Shashar wrote many books, including books on interviews with influential figures on Israeli society. He was close to Yeshayahu Leibowitz and saw himself as his disciple.
