Facing the consequences of inaction

This book opened my eyes and heart to the consequences of what can happen when evil is allowed to spread unchallenged. It taught me that actions, and inaction, have a ramification and that the evil that Nazis perpetrated was enabled, in large part, by the looking away of those who should have acted.

Great book!

This was the textbook for an amazing history class I took in my senoir year of high school. I never got around to doing most of the writing assignments for the class because I was so caught up in the book. It's full of stories, some historical fiction, some primary source material, and all well-chosen. The subject matter is primarily the behavior, psychology, and history of intolerance and hatred. It's not exactly a comforting read, but it's definitely thought-provoking, and covers significantly more ground than just the Holocaust. Very well done. A textbook that you can't put down is a very rare and valuable thing.
