Contemporary Judaism is transforming, especially in America, from a community experience to more of a do-it-yourself religion focused on the individual self. In this book Christopher L. Schilling offers a critique of this transformation. Schilling discusses problematic aspects of Jewish mindfulness meditation, and the relationship between Judaism and psychedelics, proceeding to explore the science behind these developments and the implications they have for Judaism.

Christopher L. Schilling is a lawyer and political scientist. He holds a PhD and LLB from the University of Hamburg and a MA from Goldsmiths, University of London. His work has appeared in Modern Judaism, Journal of Modern Jewish Studies, Jewish Political Studies Review, and Israel Affairs, among others.
