The con­cept of tikkun olam is used to refer to a broad range of eth­i­cal imper­a­tives. Inter­per­son­al behav­ior, atti­tude toward the envi­ron­ment, and a vision of a bet­ter world are all part of this com­pelling con­cept. In this work, Rab­bi Dorff intro­duces the the­o­ry behind the idea of tikkun olam as well as how it is actu­al­ized through mitzvot and behav­iors. Intend­ed as an intro­duc­tion for Chris­tians, the book com­pares the approach­es of Jew­ish texts on this top­ic to Chris­t­ian texts, explain­ing where the two faith tra­di­tions con­verge and where they differ.
