1.The Third Reich: A New History by: Michael Burleigh July 06, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £10.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.69 You Save: £3.30 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.47
This brick of a book is truly excellent. The detail is superb & the writing is of the highest quality. Burleigh offers a fresh perspective on an extremely well documented period of history. I found this book engrossing & difficult to put down.Charting the rise of Nazism & the decisions & dogma which shaped Nazi policies, this book is surely a must for those with an interest in the subject. It is obvious why this book has won the plaudits it has. The section on the invasion of Russia is particularly well done, although the whole book is of the highest quality. A work of immense proportions.

2.Blood and Rage: A Cultural History of Terrorism by: Michael Burleigh February 18, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £25.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £17.50 You Save: £7.50 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £15.82
Burleigh's book is raw, historical background which by volume would do credit to a good research assistant but, by value, needs editing and organisation. He chronicles a number of terrorist campaigns, deals with movements - the attention seekers - violent struggles in Spain and Ireland. He then considers Islamic terrorism. The trouble with raw data it is hard to digest. In a book of too few conclusions, he points out that terrorism attracts the worst and the dullest, a way of making mundane lives meaningful, gaining notoriety. It can be exciting, for a while. That "the milieu of terrorists is morally squalid, when it is not merely criminal" often gullible and psychotic. Idealists usually are weaker than the criminals attracted to terrorist ... Read More:

3.Sacred Causes: Religion and Politics from the European Dictators to Al Qaeda by: Michael Burleigh October 01, 2007

Gave up on this book after a few chapters. Found the author to be a narrow minded arse quite frankly. I had to laugh at many of his opinions that were not backed by any facts but only his right wing bias. I skipped a few chapters to see if it would get any better but it just got more ridiculous. I am glad I didnt buy this book I only borrowed it from the local library and I couldnt take it back soon enough.

4.The Racial State: Germany 19331945: Germany 1933-1945 (Burleigh) by: Michael Burleigh, Wolfgang (Frei Universitat, Berlin) Wippermann November 07, 1991
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £20.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £12.99
Burleigh and Wippermann describe in heart-rending detail the Nazis' project to biologically transform Germany and all nations that might eventually fall under its sway. The Nazis' attention to detail in their bizarre attempts to re-structure humanity is as insane as one might have expected, and one is struck by the wide acceptance these ideas received among both scientific communities and the public at large. Although the book focuses on the Germans, it should not be forgotten that their warped views of eugenics and the 'health' of nations were common all over the world at the time, nor that they had thousands of willing helpers from other countries in their murderous endeavours. This book shows the dangers of blind faith in immoral science as much ... Read More:

An informative yet chilling view of how the murder of the most vunerable section of society can be undertaken and how it can be concealed. T4 was the thin end of the wedge which we now call the Holocaust. Any who would deny the Holocaust would do well to read this book and see what went before. In undersatnding the nature of the Hitler goverment and how the most radical and dangerous ideas could become a murderous reality this book deserves your attention.
