About the Book

This is the story of a young boy who suffers a mysterious life threatening illness before his first birthday. His severe physical and psychological problems threaten to destroy him. But, after his Bar Mitzvah, a sequence of mystical/magical events help him to overcome his difficulties and be successful in school and in life. Each chapter closes with a list of related questions and responses, along with biblical references.
About the Author: Hyman Gabai received his B.S. in Math and Science Education from Temple University, and his M.A. and Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Pennsylvania. He earned a Certificate in Applied Statistics from the Graduate School of Polytechnic Institute of New York, and completed summer courses in Educational and Developmental Psychology at the New York University Graduate School of Education. Dr. Gabai taught all levels of mathematics from high school through college, as well as undergraduate and graduate courses for teachers of mathematics. He taught at University of Illinois, City College of New York, and retired as professor of mathematics at York College (CUNY). He is the author of Judaism, Mathematics, and the Hebrew Calendar, published by Jason Aronson Inc. in 2002. He is also the author of Excursions Through the Siddur, published by The Paradoxical Press in 2009. In addition, he is the author of more than thirty publications in mathematics and mathematics education, and co-author of a high school mathematics text. Dr. Gabai and his wife, Evelyn, of blessed memory, moved to Florida after they retired from teaching; he now lives in California.
