Websites representing specific authors,books, or series on Judaism, Jewish life/thought/history, or the State of Israel.
Please only submit a site if this is the main focus of the ENTIRE website. Do not submit a page from a larger website that deals with other or more general issues.
Books attempting to persuade Jewish people to adopt other faiths or to integrate aspects of other faiths into their observance or philosophy do not belong in this category, and should instead be submitted to the area most relevant to the book's or publisher's premise. (For example, any book promoting the premise that Jesus is the messiah should be submitted to Society: Religion and Spirituality: Christianity: Denominations: Messianic Judaism.)
