"The story told by Edward Flannerycalls not only for reform but for profound and meaningful repentance." David W. Tracy "A major contribution to Jewish-Christian relations." Marc Tanenbaum "It will bring the Catholic community an entirely new development in their thinking about the people of the Jewish faith." Robert F. Drinan "It comes from the heart of an honest priest who is deeply moved by the poisonous horror of anti-Semitism, and who appeals to his people to remember thatit is a denial of Christian faith, a failure of Christian hope, and a malady of Christian love." Abram Sachar "A definitive work." Benjamin Epstein This revised and updated edition of THE ANGUISH OF THE JEWS - a classic history of anti-Semitism written by a Roman Catholic priest and now with a foreword by Philip Cunningham is as relevant today as when it was first published in 1964. Hailed by Jews and Christians alike as a groundbreaking book that did much to expose the reality of historical anti-Semitism in the United States and around the world, it includes material covering the last two decades; it considers developments in the Middle East, and it explores the impact that Judaic studies have had on Christian thought.
