"Well-researched and well-written book. . . . Rossman has done the scholarly community the real service . . . major reference book for years to come."-Robert Freedman, Slavic Review "Excellent introduction to the subject . . . . Not only does Rossman provide here the first comprehensive account of the whole spectrum of post-Soviet intellectual anti-Semitism. He, in distinction to some authors in the field, takes the theories and concepts of the Russian publicists he analyzes more or less seriously. [With Rossman’s book] ultra-nationalism . . . is acknowledged as a subject of political science.  One hopes that it finds a wide readership not only among students of anti-Semitism and the history of ideas, but also among experts on international right-wing extremism and contemporary Russian politics and society."-Andreas Umland, European History Quarterly "Thanks to Vadim Rossman, we now have a book that explains the anti-Jewish ideology that lies at the base of much Russian nationalist thought.  Professor Rossman's service to the study of anti-Semitism in Russia lies not just in his locating, reading, and summarizing Russian anti-Semitic writing between 1887 and 1997 - although this task alone would break weaker scholars - his main service is the organization of his material according to political programs. . . . This is a great book. . . . Rossman provides excellent summaries of literally hundreds of anti-Semitic books and articles, sketches valuable biographies of the pertinent writers and leaders, and discusses their intellectual parentage in early twentieth century Russian thought. . . . I encourage those interested in contemporary Russian politics, philosophy, and social thought to get hold of this extremely useful and timely book."-Brian Horowitz, Russian Review "[A} welcome contribution to the analysis of a significant phenomenon on the Russian ideological and political scene. . . . Rossman’s book offers a valuable introduction to the variety of anti-Semitic ideological positions in contemporary Russia. The thematic organization of the book makes for good organization and easy reading, with the author's clear prose an additional bonus."-Veljko Vujacic, Canadian Slavonic Papers "If one wants to understand the deep crisis of Russian national self-identification, or the problems of self-identification inflicted on Russian Jews. . . . Rossman's book is essential and invigorating reading."—Sidney Monas
