A nice introduction for the general reader, judicious in tone and striking an effective balance between facts, anecdotes, and extended quotations. The authors trade depth of analysis for breadth of scope, covering the 2700 year period from the Babylonian Exile to today,

This book was disturbing, of course, and eye-opening. To see the ways in which hatred persists and is used despite various tools of hatred having been debunked many times over is almost enough to pull one into despair.
