Modern day Israel, and the Jewish community, is strongly
influenced by the memory and horrors of Hitler and the
Holocaust. Burg argues that the Jewish nation has been
traumatized and has lost the ability to trust itself, its
neighbors or the world around it. He shows that this is one
of the causes for the growing nationalism and violence
that are plaguing Israeli society and reverberating through
Jewish communities worldwide. Burg uses his own family
history--his parents were Holocaust survivors--to inform
his innovative views on what the Jewish people need to do
to move on and eventually live in peace with their Arab
neighbors and feel comfortable in world at large. Thought-
provoking, compelling, and original, this book is bound to
spark a heated debate around the world.
