ITEM OVERVIEW
If we are in danger of forgetting the horrors of the Holocaust, that danger comes now more from some of the self-proclaimed guardians of Holocaust memory than from the rubbish of Holocaust deniers. Finkelstein traces the history of Holocaust studies, of memory and particularly of those who have used their version of the Holocaust to advance agendas, personal and political. This new paperback edition includes updated material discussing the initial reception to the book's publication. A brave, brilliant, and very necessary book. And now, in its third edition, Finkelestein, in a new postscript, documents the Holocaust industry's scandalous cover-up of the blackmail of Swiss banks, and in a new appendix demolishes an influential apologia for the Holocaust industry.
