The Jews

“Rob Kutner has done it again. Only this time, it’s serious. And seriously funny. This book is an absolute dream—a delightful companion to the Torah, the Talmud, and every history book every written about the Jewish people with historically accurate and grounded insights on Jewish history as well as every facet of how our history impacts women, homosexuality, politics, and antisemitism. I would not expect anything less than brilliant from Kutner, but in this case, he has created a perfect book for anyone who has ever wondered how the heck the Jews got here and where the heck are we going and is it okay to laugh about it all? I’ll follow Kutner to the answer.” -- Mayim Bialik, Actor, Author, Neuroscientist
“Reading this book will make your mother proud.” -- Mark Cuban
“So good I'm thinking of converting!” -- Ken Jennings, Host of Jeopardy!, Author of Planet Funny
“A hilarious and informative Judaism lesson wrapped in a comedy special.” -- Jewish Journal
“The Jews is not only incredibly readable and informative, but also laugh out loud funny. Kutner walks a tightrope of what could have either come off as dry history and/or offensive comedy, but instead, nails the landing. And yes, I did just mix my performative sports metaphors.” -- Jonathan Kesselman, Writer/Director, The Hebrew Hammer
“Hilarious, smart, and fearless, and there’s even a musical number—this book totally checks all my Jew-boxes.” -- Rachel Bloom, Creator/Star, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
“I foresee great laughter in your future if you buy this book.” -- Isaiah
“Wow! Kutner’s extensive and comprehensive history of the Jews is a great gift for both Jews and non-Jews of all ages. The millennial saga of the Jews, presented through a humorous lens, is a great contribution to Jewish humor.” -- Moshe Waldoks, Co-Editor, The Big Book of Jewish Humor
“Funny, irreverent, and packed with both inventiveness and information, The Jews is a terrific way to get to know, well, Jews!” -- Rabbi David Wolpe
