Jewish men and women have been prominent in the fields of religion, music, commerce, law, diplomacy, philosophy, literature, art, sport and cinema. Who were the most influential, and how do we rank them? This is a biographical listing of 100 of the most influential Jews in history. Individuals from the biblical, classical, medieval and modern eras appear, with each entry presenting a biography and an argument for that person's rank in the pantheon of world history. Shapiro has designed this list to inform, entertain, surprise and even outrage readers with its conclusions, inclusions and exclusions.
