This Book: Views humankind with the objectivity that only a political cartoonist could attempt... or a tree could achieve. Explores the Jewish people's connection with the land of Israel and explains how the Zionist tree-planting compulsion holds the hope for the future of the entire planet. Shows your roots as only a tree could see them! The Author: Ya'akov Kirschen is the internationally acclaimed cartoonist behind the Israel-based syndicated political comic strip Dry Bones. For more than 20 years, his satirical comments on the news of the day and developments in the Middle East have been quoted and reprinted in the world press and electronic media. From the NY Times to the LA Times, his work has elucidated current events around the world for hundreds of millions of people. The Challenge: Forbes Magazine called him "tough minded and unafraid of deflating his audience's pride and prejudices." Now, in his first book-length work, Kirschen thumbs his nose at political correctness and dares to suggest that the solution to the troubles of our planet lies in the inherent ecological message of the Bible and offers a vision of its fruition in our time.
