Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Mein Kampf was first published in two volumes in 1925-26 and sold between eight and nine million copies in German during Hitler's lifetime, as well as being widely translated. It is the most notorious political tract of the twentieth century. This translation by James Murphy (who worked in Goebbels's Ministry of propaganda from 1934 to 1938) is considered standard.

Mein Kampf remains necessary reading for those who seek to understand the Holocaust, for students of totalitarian psychology and for all those who care to safeguard democracy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting book,, February 16, 2004
By A Customer
Adolf Hitler was probably one of the most successful leaders in History, and I'm talking about before the war. Before the war, he managed to bring back an economically desolate Germany and instill a sense of nationalism in ALL GERMANS (yes, even jewish germans). In fact, he completed such a huge feat that he was Time Magazine's Man of the Year for 1938.

But this book shows what we all came to realize later. Though he was a genius politician and an excellent leader, Hitler had his issues. Emotional issues and mental issues warped him brutally. Read this book to understand the war. And I think Hitler is evil. I'm not defending him in the above paragraph. But you have to realize that he was a wonderful leader for a period of time. Then he crossed that line and spiralled into madness.

This book will help you understand that madness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grow Up People, June 13, 2005
Amazon has set up this feature so that the book in question may be reviewed. This is not your shrink's couch.

Having reviewed the reviews, I have to say that most of them are not helpful at all. First I read about how Mein Kampf accurately portrays the horrors of socialism, which -- as any educated person would know -- is complete nonsense. (For the reviewer who wrote that: You should know that Nazi Germany is the quintessential example of a RIGHTIST dictatorship.)

And then, I just read just emotional reactions to the Holocaust. Thanks, I'm sure we're all very well aware of how horrific the Jewish Holocaust was. But if you haven't even read the book, why the hell are you "reviewing it"??

*SIGHS* Now, to the book itself:

I know any review of Mein Kampf is a blatant redundancy. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of this work for the understanding of one of the most unsettling and significant political and sociological phenomena of recent history.

A crucial read to any student of poli sci, as well as psych and sociology.

3.0 out of 5 stars Important historical document, September 19, 2003
By A Customer
Many people would like to ban this book, Germany has already done it. Personally I think that banning words is the worst way of dealing with history. People need to read, they need to learn how to think: and one shuld prevent a book's attraction to rise, which does seem to happen, just as result of banning it in the first place.
Read this book, take it as a historic document, build your own opinion. There is no good and evil in ths world, but there are prejudices and ways that lead to distruction of parts of humanity, which can only be a loss. Looking back into history, we know what this book has caused. In order to prevent such a history from happening again, we all need to read this book in to recognize a similar handwriting in our future.
