Excerpt from The Jewish Contribution to CivilizationTo anyone capable of harboring thoroughgoing anti Semitism - a group prejudice, that is, directed against a whole race of human beings - this book is probably too intelligent to make an effective appeal. Such vulgar and barbarian race prejudice is not only without rootage in anthropology, without support in the social sciences, and incredible to normal men and women, it is, from the standpoint of morals, one of the most debasing of human attitudes. As H. G. Wells has written, I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than race prejudice, none at all. I write deliberately - it is the worst single thing in life now. It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomination than any other sort of error in the world. Events in Europe have terribly validated this judgment, and in America the repercussions of foreign anti-semitism are too frequent and menacing to be neglected.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
