Faith & Depression

It might seem unexpected for the head of America's #1 telecom company to write a book titled Faith and Depression, but read about Jonas' life experiences, failures and successes, and it quickly becomes clear: Howard Jonas knows people can succeed in changing their lives for the best. He knows because he did it himself.

A few years ago, there were hundreds of "dot com millionaires." When the Internet bubble burst and the smoke cleared, few of those titans were left standing. Howard Jonas and his company IDT were among the survivors, and have gone on to become a top player in the telecommunications field.


Howard Jonas doesn't run his company the way Wall Street wants him to. He does it his way, and his attitude towards business and life— strongly grounded in his traditional Jewish values—is refreshingly uncommon.
