Editorial : How appropriate that one of the deepest thinkers about the Holocaust turns his attention to the horrors of Islamic sacred war, known as jihad. Rubinstein's important and fearless study should wake a largely slumbering world to jihad's true nature and its irreconcilable menace. (Daniel Pipes, director, Middle East Forum; author of Militant Islam Comes to America)
For fifty years, Richard L. Rubenstein has written courageously and insightfully about crucial issues, including the Holocaust and other genocides. Always on the cutting edge, challenging conventional wisdom repeatedly, Rubenstein's views often provoke controversy but they are ignored at our peril. Jihad and Genocide, the result of careful research and seasoned reflection, is not only a distinctive milestone in Rubenstein's distinguished career but also an analysis essential for religious understanding and public policy. (John K. Roth, Edward J. Sexton Professor Emeritus of Philosophy; founding director, Cente
This book examines the relationship between jihad and genocide, past and present. Richard L. Rubenstein, a respected scholar in the field of genocide studies, takes a close look at the violent interpretations of jihad and how they have played out in the past hundred years, from the Armenian genocide through current threats to Israel. Rubenstein's unflinching study of the potential for fundamentalist jihad to initiate targeted violence raises pressing questions in a time when questions of religious co-existence, particularly in the Middle East, are discussed urgently each day.
As a child I just loved Melvin Monster. It’s different – it’s Australian – it’s honest.
Cavanagh looks back on his life with a new view, now he knows he has Asperger’s.
Could I do that? I’m not sure – it’s an interesting exercise, which makes this story even more compelling.
I hope he writes more.. Avery is a combination of beauty, brains, loyalty and vulnerability. The author hooked me with nostalgia for a beautiful place, then reeled me in with a tale of how complicated love can be.. They are GREAT for teaching character education to young children!!!!!. For example, showing simultaneous views of right hand, left hand, and the music staff and/or tablature.
This course comes in two editions: the original edition (119) and the extended edition (149). He's funny and bright, at times self-deprecating, and he has a huge heart.
This multi-layered story was over too soon for my taste. For some reason
