Media Reviews
The book is an excellent addition to teaching resources on the Holocaust....By placing the Holocaust in its twin contexts--as a culmination of the history of antisemitism and as a case study of modern genocide--Landau has done educators, students, and scholars a great service. This book is highly recommended and is appropriate for high school and introductory college courses on the Holocaust, Jewish education, and Jewish history.
