Rabbi J. Simcha Cohen has
brought us another dynamic Halachic analysis, in his accessible
"question-answer" format. In Jewish Prayer: The Right Way, Rabbi
Cohen examines a wide variety of different aspects of Jewish prayer
and guides us through their answers in an understandable and
enjoyable way. He addresses not only specific topics, as in the
extensive sections relating to Kohanim or the Sheliach Tzibbur, but
also others that could be of concern to any Jewish worshipper, such
as those dealing with the many facets of the Shema, standing vs.
sitting during various prayers, and a study on special synagogue
customs. Rabbi Cohen's self-described mission is to dispel the
erroneous notion that Halacha is dry and not as meaningful a
pursuit as other aspects of Torah learning.
