The Changing Face of Anti-Semitism

s/t: From Ancient Times to the Present Day

"For thirty years the director of the Wiener Library in London, the leading institute for the study of antisemitism, Walter Laqueur here offers both a comprehensive history of antisemitism as well as a look at the newest wave of this phenomenon." Here is both a summing up of the entire trajectory of antisemitism - the first comprehensive history of its kind - and an exploration of the new wave of antisemitism that will be of interest to all concerned about the future of Jews, Judaism, and Israel.
