This new edition of Professor Leon Shapiro\'s insightful publication describes ORT\'s growth from a Jewish vocational charity in Russia (1880) to a global educational and training network over the span of 100 years. It highlights the ways that ORT experienced technological, socio-economic, and geo-political change and how this is bound to the story of the Jewish people. Photography and illustrations accompany this educational text. The book\'s cover and pages are solid and clean and the book has a sown in book mark/place keeper to make reading easy. The only thing missing is the book sleeve.
