Testimonials Off the Derech is an eye opener. Thousands of years ago, the prophet Isaiah said, "Surely you see, but you fail to know...The heart of this nation is fattened, its ears are heavy and its eyes are sealed (6:9-10)." We are losing too many of our youth. It is high time that we open our eyes, see, and know. You may agree with Faranak Margolese or disagree, but Off the Derech cannot be ignored. It is mandatory reading. - Abraham J. Twerski, MD, Medical Director Emeritus, Gateway Rehabilitation Center, psychiatrist, author The Rabbis of the Talmud understood that included in our mitzvah to love G-D is to act and to speak in such a way as to get others to love G-D as well. This fascinating book can serve as a Mussar Sefer for all observant Jews regarding how to act and to speak in such a way as not to turn others away from religious observance. - Hershel Schachter, Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary This is a courageous and necessary book. If Orthodox life takes it seriously, it will change all of Jewish life for the better. - Dennis Prager, Best selling author and nationally syndicated radio talk show host Off the Derech is essential reading for every Jewish parent and educator concerned with the alienation of our young people. It is an invaluable source for understanding why observant Jewish youth leave the fold and a priceless tool for preventing them from doing so. - Natan Lopez Cardozo, Dean, David Cardozo Academy Read more praise of Off the Derech
