The central theme of this book is modesty, a notion so simple and common that most of us would dismiss it as irrelevant to our daily lives. But Rabbi Manis Friedman asks us to look again. And as we do he explains, clearly and succinctly, how modesty can become a powerful tool for change.
Gently and with humor, Rabbi Friedman helps us redirect our thinking about sexuality and refocus our ideas about intimacy. In so doing, he moves us toward a truer understanding of ourselves and how we can cope with the changing world around us.
Not since “The Art of Loving” by Erich Fromm has there been a book this powerful and universal – on Love, Marriage, and the art of intimacy.
“If a copy of Friedman’s remarkable book could be presented to every young American on reaching a marriageable age, millions would escape the anguish of divorce, failed relationships, and marital strife.”

“Every page is valuable… Gentle, sensitive, wise and sometimes crack-up funny.”
