Judeophobia

"Startling and revelatory – Shlomo Sand shows how centuries of Christian persecution and the Zionist myth of Jewish exile have driven Israeli Jews to embrace absurd racialist doctrines that doomed the Jews of Europe and now threaten a new version of Jew hatred spawned by the behaviour of the state that calls itself Jewish."
Ian Lustick, University of Pennsylvania

"A highly informative book, bolstered by facts, which polemically dismantles idées reçues . This is the kind of history we need, particularly at a time like the present, when accusations of anti-semitism are levelled against anyone who criticizes Israel."
Donald Sassoon, Queen Mary University of London

"Informed and remarkable... This is an important book and Sand's arguments deserve to be heard."
The Irish Times

"A fascinating and convincing outline of the continuum between European pre-modern religious Christian Judeophobia, modern racialist Judeophobia and Zionism/Israel."
