a bit too elementary for me ...

since I could have guessed many of the book's points without reading it. But if I hadn't read numerous similar books (most notably Joseph Telushkin's book on Jewish values) I would have gotten more out of it, so I would definitely recommend it for people who have not read those books. Basic points were as follows: 1. Classical Judaism generally favored work as opposed to monasticism. 2. Some jobs are socially constructive and thus spiritual in their own right. (Though Salkin picks some very easy examples such as medicine; I think he would have done better to pick some less obvious examples- for example, what's spiritual about being an investment banker?) 3. A brief discussion of Jewish business ethics. (One-sentence summary: honesty is good). 4. Workaholism is bad.
