Summary: This is a must read!
Review: This book should be read by every person in America. The writers do an excellent job of showing the validity of the ten commandments in our modern enlightened (so called) society. Some Christians will not like the overt Jew influence on the book but it is well worth reading. Modern Christianity is infected with antinomianism and this book is a cry to return to the law of God as our moral, ethical and social foundation.

Summary: getting back to the basics
Review: This book takes all 10 commandments and breaks them down one by one on what they should mean to us today. We all need help with what we should try to achieve each and every day. I am a Christan and found the book very inlightening. We need more Dr. Laura's out there today helping us to be better people.

Summary: Not helpful in actually talking to kids
Review: This book was not the guide I needed in expressing spirituality to my kids. Her style is obnixious to me. The book looked good from the description. The other book I bought was so gentle and truly helpful: 10 Principles For Spiritual Parenting. That's the "laws" I want my kids to operate from.

Summary: I enjoyed this book and learned a lot from it.
Review: This is a most interesting combination of Jewish law, tradition, and wisdom and its application to everyday life and problems. Rabbi Vogel has contributed a lot of background that I as a church going Christian of 60+ years have never heard. It helps my understanding of God's laws. Dr. Laura tells of many phone conversations and e-mails to tie these teachings to our lives today.

Summary: Excellent perspective on G-d's Laws.
Review: Thousands of years after they were written by the finger of G-d, the 10 Commandments still inspire some, and enrage others. The fact that Dr. Laura is writing about them may be a turn-off to some, but then again those who would be turned off already hate her and/or the 10 Commandments! Nevertheless, this book is about their applicability in our everyday lives. The first five commandments deal with our obligations to G-d, the second five deal with our obligations to each other. Far from being the "rules of oppression" as some would have you to believe, the 10 commandments were written and handed down to give mankind guidelines for love, respect, and honor. Dr.Laura's approach is from a unique perspective; there are'nt many Gentiles like myself who have read biblical perspectives from a Jewish standpoint. From her vantage point I have gained a greater reverence for the applicability of G-d's laws in my everyday life.

Summary: I wish I could go lower than a 1 star.
Review: to bad Dr.Laura doesn't really know how to live,If there was a good honest person to write this book it might of turned out differently,,she bad mouths everyone's beliefs and says everythings wrong unless it's her way.I think she seriously tried to alter the commandments so she could look like a better person,She's a hater and this is a horrible book.!DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

Summary: Sets you back on track.
Review: What a terrific and important undertaking Dr. Laura and Rabbi Vogel have made. I enjoyed and was, more importantly, inspired by this book. It is a book to read, highlight and re-read passages in over and over. The insight they both offer to the ten commandments is invaluable and it helps very much to have these timeless commandments interpreted so we can live them every day instead of think of them on occasion. This book is a continuation of Dr Laura's good works and she teaches us that money and prejudice are not to be worshipped but we should all live our lives trying to thwart evil and make the world a better place.

Summary: The Significance of Laura's Law in Our Everyday Lives
Review: Your editorial reviewer describes Laura as a "Syndicated radio psychologist." Well, two out of three ain't bad. Laura is not a psychologist. She has a Ph.D. in physiology (not psychology) and at one time (but no longer) was in private practice as an MFCC (Marriage Family and Children Counselor); this is a Masters Degree. Laura's MFCC license in California is no longer current. This is important, because your reviewer's error is understandable. Since Laura gives advice, and uses the "Dr." title, listeners assume that she must have the appropriate credentials. She does not, and she does little to correct the errors (recently a listener called her a psychologist and she did not correct her). This is a direct violation of the Commandment not to bear false witness, and with this simple illustration we can see how ironic it is for Laura Schlessinger to be giving us her opinion of the Decalogue. She really has broken every one of them. The oddest disparity in the book was her spending four and half pages equating gossip with murder, but only three paragraphs on her own personal sin, hypocrisy, two of which minimized its importance. This is not a book about the Ten Commandments, this is a book where Laura can beat up on her audience and feel superior to then, while ignoring her own failures. A woman who hasn't spoken to her mother in fifteen years should not be lecturing us on how to honor our parents. A woman who calls the First Lady "The Wicked Witch of the East" should not complain about today's youth disparaging authority figures. The woman is a complete and utter hypocrite. And please change your review above; she is NOT a psychologist.
