Open Book Torah

Th​is project is about making ancient texts relevant to the modern reader. The book’s design reflects the ​Open Book Press editorial goal of affording the contemporary English reader an authentic Torah-learning experience, complete with its inherent contradictions, joys of discovery, and opportunities for insight. This undertaking included addressing the challenges of the by-lingual/by-directional typography, complex data visualization, and even the creation of a custom font.
