""Jewish Lives and Jewish Education in the UK is a meticulously researched and accessible contribution to the field of Jewish education. By blending quantitative rigor with narrative depth, Miller and Pomson illuminate how schools, families, and social networks interact to shape Jewish identity. This volume provides valuable insights for educators, policymakers, community leaders, and parents navigating decisions about Jewish education. The book invites reflection on how education can sustain vibrant and adaptive Jewish life in an ever-changing world."" (Adina L. Bankier‑Karp, Contemporary Jewry, Vol. 45 (1), March, 2025)
