...argument, family bickering-and could just as easily have taken place in any Western capital. Two of the tales-Barhash and Hamamah-are about Arabs, not Jews, and reveal a surprising attachment for the way of life of Bedouin and fellahin. Others hold a mirror to contemporary Israeli life: Yehuda Yaari's pastoral The Shepherd and His Dog reflects the sabra's passionate love of his barren land; Jerusalem-born Yehuda Burla writes wittily of the marriage between a stolid Oriental Jew and his hopelessly romantic Russian Jewish wife-which is also a marriage between two very different...

Bromberg of Jerusalem's Hadassah University Hospital tell how they made hormone skin tests on 165 women, about half of whom were suspected of hormone allergy. Sure enough, 68 of them proved auto-allergic. Encouragingly, however, the doctors found that graduated shots of the offending hormones would cure 50% of the auto-allergies and markedly improve another...
