Reviews

"This theme runs throughout Eunice Pollack’s insightful ‒ and chilling ‒ anthology of essays on contemporary anti-Semitism. [...] Pollack’s volume, in sum, furnishes an outstanding introduction to various dimensions of the anti-Zionist strain of anti-Semitism. All of the essays are engagingly written, very informative and completely accessible to the layman. This anthology is a heartily recommended point of entry for those people interested in learning about leftist and Islamist hate mongering." - Israel Affairs, 24.2
