Abstract.
Yaakov is the author of numerous articles on a wide range of topics regarding Judaism in America and beyond, Jewish-Christian relations, and evangelical Christianity and its attitudes towards the Jewish people and the Holy Land.

His previous book, Evangelizing the Chosen People: Missions to the Jews in America, 1880-2000, was awarded the Albert C. Outler Prize by the American Society of Church History.

In addition to his outstanding scholarship, Yaakov is also an acclaimed teacher and outstanding graduate advisor.

I was fortunate to have him as my mentor and dissertation director while at UNC--and thus I am especially pleased to highlight his new book.
