THE ART OF THE DILEMMA
 
Modern Conundrums. Talmudic debates. Your solutions. 
 
When confronted with dilemmas so complex, your gut tells you to do one thing, and your brain tells you another—what do you do?
  • Apply mind-bending, brain-twisting, hair-splitting Talmudic reasoning to solve real-life modern dilemmas—situations that actually happened yet seem impossible to solve.
  • Prepare for a mental expedition to mind-wrestle with situations that force us to choose between two reasonable truths.
  • Analyze, discuss, and debate Talmudic texts with live interactive polling for an authentic taste of original, dynamic Talmud study.
