description: This book is unique in that it is a response to an opposing book written by a boyhood friend of the author. To me, that makes it potentially a very effective way to teach people critical-thinking skills. Get this book, than get Bruno Manz's book and read both of them. Make your own decision on who is more concerned with actual truth. Normally people never do this, but there is no better way to open your eyes. I have done this more than anyone I have ever known and there is much we can learn from books like these. I think we can certainly learn more than we learn from constantly hearing better and better (read "more extreme") versions of the official view of WW2. That's not thinking, that's training. History really is written by the victors. You can see that clearly just from reading this book. This book is so interesting, unique and eye-opening that it should be read in high schools so people can look at the War from other perspectives. You cannot discount what he is saying just because some of it is politically incorrect. He includes examples and quotes from everyone from Julius Streicher to Elie Wiesel. He also does a lot of what I call "psychological archaeology" -- where he shows that Germans were most definitely not evil or irrational. In fact, they appear to have been much more reasonable and rational than most people today. We are all subject to propaganda -- which sinks into us because of what we see as a "respectable" opinion more than from the actual arguments. Most people only later come up with rationalizations for their views, not really ever knowing where those views came from. Social conditioning can shape your brain completely, and you will never learn to really think without reading books like these which show where the opinions you have originate.. There are not many books like this out there. This book definitely made my mind more free. Its better than any self-help book I ever read in that regard. It allows you to really think rather than just producing well-trained responses
