DEBUNKING HOLOCAUST DENIAL THEORIES: Two Non-Jews Affirm the Historicity of the Nazi Genocide; by independent researchers and filmmakers James Morcan Lance Morcan with a foreword by Holocaust survivor Hetty E. Verolme (author of The Children's House of Belsen); aims to end the denial once and for all by tackling the bizarre phenomenon head-on. Written in close consultation with Holocaust survivors and World War Two historians; no stone is left unturned in meticulously verifying the historical facts of the genocide. The Morcans present a wide array of sources including Nazi documentation; eyewitness accounts; scientific reports and shocking photographic evidence to shut down the debate deniers wish to create. One by one; the various arguments Holocaust deniers use to try to discredit wartime records are carefully scrutinized and then systematically disproven. Theories debunked include: the six million death toll figure being an exaggeration; gas chamber exterminations being fictitious; Adolf Hitler and the Third Reich being wrongly vilified; the analysis of Holocaust records being a taboo due to specific laws in Europe criminalizing deniers; "Evil Zionists" and Israel being so powerful that they can censor history. The Holocaust is shown in this book's pages to be one of the most well-documented and most historically and forensically-proven crimes of the 20th Century. In the process; many of the world's most infamous deniers; including disgraced British historian David Irving and the former President of Iran Mahmoud Ahmadinejad; are revealed to be nothing but anti-Semites seeking to further denigrate; undermine and demoralize the world's Jewish population. In this enlightening read that covers more than two millennia of global history; anti-Semitism is shown not only to be the root cause of every form of Holocaust denial; but also the reason for the relentless persecution of the Jews since Biblical times. The authors quote verbatim the often sickening and always baseless comments of kings; emperors; politicians; popes; bishops and muftis about the Jews and why they chose to commit numerous genocides against them over the centuries. These historical quotes prove eerily similar to the vicious anti-Semitic statements made by Holocaust deniers of this era... If you wish to learn more about WW2 and the Nazi extermination camps; if you are confused by all the convoluted conspiracy theories circulating on the Internet about the Holocaust; or if you are currently a denier yourself; then DEBUNKING HOLOCAUST DENIAL THEORIES is a must read.

10 of 10 people found the following review helpful. An entertaining and comprehensive bookBy Mark B.If you're interested in insects; this book is for you. An excellent collection of a a large quantity of writings and other materials; all about insects. Good bedside reading; as each excerpt is relatively short.14 of 14 people found the following review helpful. A cornucopia of creepy-crawliesBy Dennis LittrellThis is a beautifully and cleverly edited eclectic collection of stories; articles; poems; scientific treatises; and even cartoons about insects. There are quaint stories from the eighteenth century; studious articles from the nineteenth; and modern selections from such twentieth century experts as Edward O. Wilson; Roger B. Swain. Karl von Frisch; May Berenbaum; Harold Oldroyd and others. Charles Darwin is represented; Aristotle; Alfred Russel Wallace; Thoreau; even the Bible makes an appearance. There are selections from a novella; A.S. Byatt's "Morpho Eugenia"; poems; Wordsworth's "To a Butterfly;" Robert Burns's "To a Louse"; and even a bit of a movie; THEM! (1954). Obviously; editors; Hoyt and Schultz are as intent at entertaining as informing. You'll find dozens of different insects here; from house flies and ants to dung beetles and glow-worms to ticks; wasps; silverfish; etc. Each selection is presented with a short note from the editors and followed by a bibliographical entry. There is an index of authors and one of subjects. The selections are collected under various heading; e.g.; "Insects Praised;" "Insects Reviled;" "Insect Architecture;" etc. The sheer breath of insect behavior presented here is unnerving: How multifarious are the realities of life! Noteworthy is the meticulous care taken with the editing and proofreading. This is a good and strange read.7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Unusual and interestingBy M. BroderickThis book is a collection of short pieces about every conceivable type of insect. A few are complete essays; but most are excerpts from longer works. At least one is a one-panel Gary Larson cartoon!Most of the selections are entertaining; or at least interesting. Many are records of direct observation by naturalists in the 19th or early 20th Centuries. Usually they have some distinguishing feature such as freakish behavior; first observation; or an exceptionally interesting experiment included.This is not a scientific book on insects--Although many of the authors are scientists; the excerpts don't fit together to make a textbook or organized survey of insects. What it is is very interesting and entertaining--A good bathroom or bedside book for the insect-lover. Definitely do not choose it as your first or only book in trying to learn about insects; but it makes a good addition to the insect library of an enthusiast.
