Rezensionen

"Although it is cast as basically an academic work, the book is very far from dry or heavy-going. Cohen writes lucidly, not only as regards style but also in respect to content. He covers his field of study comprehensively, drawing his conclusions from the evidence-based results of his extensive research. The reader is left much more knowledgeable about the nature of the media in Israel, and the professional problems facing the journalists who staff it. The religious dimension to Israeli society is also covered clearly and comprehensively, and particular attention is directed at its relationship with the modern media in an increasingly digital-savvy nation. If issues such as these excite your interest, then this is a book for you."

Neville Teller, The Jerusalem Post

"I consider this book a landmark study that has been properly scaffolded by Yoel Cohen's sustained research publications on matters related to the rabbis-media-public nexus. This book demonstrates his years of scholarly research and adept utilization of language. Regarding content, Cohen always justifies his remarks, suggestions, and insights through his gathered and analyzed data. Furthermore, the mindfulness toward concise explanations of Jewish terminologies and brief yet meaningful contextualization prove how the book caters even to readers unfamiliar with the complexities of Jewish media, religion, and culture."

Carl Jayson D. Hernandez, Religion and Social Communication, Vol. 22 No. 2, 2024

"Professor Yoel Cohen has a deep understanding of religious society in all its diversity, and his research clearly reflects the gaps between different religious movements, both in their relationship to the media and in their relationship to their status in Israeli society. Therefore, the book paints a rich portrait of a diverse religious society, which is debating which ways are appropriate for it to deal with the presence of Communication in the public sphere."

Ines Gabel, Media Frames, the Israel Communication Association
