"No better analysis has ever been given of anti-Semitism as a phenomenon falling outside the field of normal prejudices and antipathies. A valuable weapon for everyone concerned with defending the foundations of our western, Christian morality." - Thomas Mann. "This book is directed chiefly at the Christian world. When I use the vocative you, the purpose is to emphasise the terrain of the problem, and not to exonerate the Jew from the moral and intellectual deficiences which he shares with the rest of the world." - page 9.
