This book which will come as a surprise to many educated observers
and historians suggests that Jews and Jewish intellectuals have
played a considerable role in the development and shaping of modern
American conservatism. The focus is on the rise of a group of
Jewish intellectuals and activists known as neoconservatives who
began to impact on American public policy during the Cold War with
the Soviet Union and most recently in the lead up to and invasion
of Iraq. It presents a portrait of the life and work of the
original and small group of neocons including Irving Kristol,
Norman Podhoretz, and Sidney Hook. This group has grown into a new
generation who operate as columnists in conservative think tanks
like The Heritage and The American Enterprise Institute, at
colleges and universities, and in government in the second Bush
Administration including such lightning rod figures as Paul
Wolfowitz, Richard Perle and Elliot Abrams. The book suggests the
neo cons have been so significant in reshaping modern American
conservatism and public policy that they constitute a
Neoconservative Revolution.
