839.0. "All you ever wanted to know about....." by TAVENG::GOLDMAN () Wed Nov 29 1989 08:03

   A non-Jewish colleague of mine is interested in "knowing about
   kosher".   We have spent a number of meal times together and it
   seems that he is fascinated by the subject.  Can anyone suggest an
   appropriate article or book?  Nothing too heavy, he's not 
   interested in converting or anything like that.

   thanks.

Re: .0

"The Jewish Dietary Laws" by Dayan Grunfeld. The first chapter contains
an excellent intro to Kashrut. The rest is in-depth halacha.

The 9 (or is it up to 10 now) questions Asked about Judaism, by Dennis
Praeger, mentioned recently in another note, has an excellent chapter on
this theme.
