Description

While much is known of Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais' erudition in the sciences and his mastery of the martial arts, Feldenkrais' intellectual, spiritual and cultural roots have remained largely unexplored. Feldenkrais may have been very much a skeptic, but he grew up in a context enriched by both cultural and religious Judaism. In fact, Feldenkrais' great-great-grandfather was Pinchas of Korets, one of the most famous 18th-century Hassidic masters. In this outstanding new book, 'Making Connection', David Kaetz introduces us to a culture of passionate inquiry, paradoxical teaching, and warm-hearted storytelling.
