The story of the shy, quiet manwho brought thousands of Jews back to Torah.Day after day. Week after week. Year after year. Neshamahafter neshamah - Rabbi Meir Schuster was at the Kosel, theCentral Bus Station, the Hebrew University campus, looking forpeople who were searching for meaning - and bringing them toplaces where they would find it.He was the most unlikely of outreach professionals. He wasshy, tongue-tied, inarticulate, and decidedly "uncool." And yet,more than almost anyone, he brought Jews - thousands, perhapstens of thousands - back to their Torah heritage. A Tap on the Shoulder brings us the stories (so many stories!)of the young men and women who traded their backpacks forTorah. It has been carefully researched and beautifully written byYonoson Rosenblum, a noted columnist and the author of manylandmark biographies of great Torah leaders. At the same time,it brings to life a magical era, the decades when searching youthfound meaning and the "baal teshuvah movement" was born. A Tap on the Shoulder shows us how one man - with absolutededication, boundless caring, and almost unbelievable siyatad'Shmaya - can change the world. One neshamah at a time.
