Description

As a psychiatrist, Dr Rubin learned that anti-Semitism and other deep-seated prejudices are non-organic diseases of the mind: malignant, emotional illnesses that can be treated only by first understanding the unique psychodynamics involved. Little has been written about this aspect of bigotry. Rubin's theory is a bold endeavour to shed light on one of humankind's most destructive and contagious illnesses and offers hope and healing for the future.
