The Varieties of the Millennial Experience

Hardcover, 520 Pages, Published 2011 by Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-975359-8, ISBN: 0-19-975359-8

"Millennialists through the ages have looked forward to the apocalyptic moment that will radically transform society into heaven on earth. They have delivered withering critiques of their own civilizations and promised both the impending annihilation of the forces of evil and the advent of a perfect society. And all their promises have invariably failed. We tend, therefore, to dismiss these prophets of doom and salvation as crackpots and ..."

Hardcover, 264 Pages, Published 2011 by Nyu Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-8147-4892-3, ISBN: 0-8147-4892-9

"The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, first published in Russia around 1905, claimed to be the captured secret protocols from the first Zionist Congress in Basel in 1897 describing a plan by the Jewish people to achieve global domination. While the document has been proven to be fake, much of it plagiarized from satirical anti-Semitic texts, it had a major impact throughout Europe during the first half of the 20th century, particularly i ..."

The Apocalyptic Year 1000
