AN UNRIVALED TEXT
The text of the Encyclopaedia Judaica CD-ROM is distinguished by both its breadth of scope and depth of focus on the Jewish world and civilization.  The CD-ROM comprises the complete text of the 16-volume print edition of the Encyclopaedia, the Year Books and the Decennials that followed, and a distinguished selection of updates available only on this CD-ROM.  Whether for a Ph.D. dissertation or a Bar/Bat Mitzvah report, the more than 15 million word, 20,000 article text in this CD-ROM provides the perfect source for research on any Jewish related subject.  And now, the extensive multimedia elements allow you to explore and learn by listening and watching: hear Jewish music of the 12th century, witness the fate of the Jewish community in Warsaw... The Encyclopaedia Judaica CD-ROM Edition - a dramatically new dimension in Jewish reference, research, and learning.
