The Seventh Million is the first book to show the decisive impact of the Holocaust on the identity; ideology; and politics of Israel. Drawing on diaries; interviews; and thousands of declassified documents; Segev reconsiders the major struggles and personalities of Israel's past; including Ben-Gurion; Begin; and Nahum Goldmann; and argues that the nation's legacy has; at critical moments--the Exodus affair; the Eichmann trial; the case of John Demjanjuk--have been molded and manipulated in accordance with the ideological requirements of the state. The Seventh Million uncovers a vast and complex story and reveals how the bitter events of decades past continue to shape the experiences not just of individuals but of a nation. Translated by Haim Watzman.

"The definitive interpretation"By $teve ABeing familiar with Kaufman's presentation of the Book of five Rings available from the same publisher this version of Sun Tzu is a good English language translation. Keep in mind that Kaufman offers these works from a decidedly modern perspective and in an extremely pragmatic fashion. Devoid of footnotes and references save for the brief prefaces Mr. Kaufman provides them as serious study guides nonetheless. Highly recommended Reading for strategy enthusiasts.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. The way of war!By Juan D. RodriguezThis is a good book about the way of war.
