His first book was How to Be an Extremely Reform Jew (Avon Books, 1994).[1] Other works include The Book of Murray: The Life, Teachings, and Kvetching of the Lost Prophet (Harmony Books, 2010), Haiku U.: From Aristotle to Zola: Great Books in 17 Syllables (Gotham Books, 2004), Haikus for Jews: For You a Little Wisdom (Harmony Books, 1999),[2] Zen Judaism: For You a Little Enlightenment (Harmony Books, 2002).[2] He has contributed to the Mirth of a Nation humor anthologies.
In popular culture
Tom Magliozzi read selections from two of Bader's books Haikus for Jews and Zen Judaism on NPR's radio program Car Talk.[3][4]
Excerpts from Bader's books have been widely circulated on the web and in e-mail, in most cases without permission. As William Novak notes, "his work has been all over the Internet without attribution."[5][2]
