Join us on Saturday, September 14 from 3:00 to 4:00 for a stimulating conversation with George Gilder and Jim Brooke discussing, The Israel Test: How Israel’s Genius Enriches and Challenges the World.

“Gilder’s originality, plus the sheer force of his enthusiasm for the extraordinary virtues of the beleaguered Jewish state, sweep away the prevailing vitriol and make for a book that is nothing less than thrilling to read.”
—Norman Podhoretz
