The powerful and deeply disturbing book, first published in 1993, that was at the heart of the David Irving libel case, now dramatized in the film Denial.
Deborah Lipstadt is the Dorot Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies at Emory University. Her other books are Beyond Belief- The American Press and the Coming of the Holocaust, 1933-1945, History on Trial- My Day in Court with David Irving and The Eichmann Trial.
Strong medicine... An antidote to the moral and intellectual virus
that has spread from the crackpot fringe to the very heart of
public discourse in the media, the courts and the world's
universities. * Los Angeles Times *
Important and impassioned... it illuminates with skill and clarity,
not only the peculiarly disturbing world of the Holocaust deniers,
but also the methods they have used to distort history, the motives
that have driven them to do so, and the vulnerabilities of our
educational systems, our culture, and ourselves that have made so
many in our society ready to listen to them. * New York Times Book
