Description
This book demonstrates that Nazism's racial anti-Semitism was rooted in Christian anti-Judaism. In analysing the Christian doctrine and church history to help answer the question of what went wrong, the author suggests that Christian tradition and teaching systematically excluded Jews from "the circle of Christian concern" and thus led to the tragedy of the Holocaust.
