- Subject: Credits
-
- This reading list is based on an original antisemitism list developed
- by Rob Levine as part of the general Judaism reading list. It has been
- augmented by material from my library that I obtained from a course on
- antisemitism that was once taught by Dr. Deborah Lipstadt at UCLA and
- from suggestions in The Jewish Catalog. Additional entries were
- provided by Eric Simon during the remodeling of the reading lists in
- July/August 2000. Other contributers include Rabbi Charles Arian, A.
- Engler Anderson, David A Guberman, Shaul Wallach, Dan Yurman and Len
- Moskowitz. Suggestions for additions or deletions for this list are
- welcome, as are brief annotations for the various list entries.
-
- A special thank you... Special thanks for her patience and
- understanding go to my wife, Karen, who put up with me hiding at the
- computer for the two months it took to complete the July/August 2000
- remodel of the entire soc.culture.jewish FAQ and Reading Lists. If you
- think the effort was worth it, drop her a note c/o
- [6]maintainer@scjfaq.org.
