The Watchtower movement has over ten million followers and
remains one of the fastest growing religious movements in the world
today. Since the movement actively proselytizes throughout the
world, many people are aware of Jehovah's Witnesses, but readers
may not be aware that the movement has profoundly influenced the
constitutional law of many countries, including America and
Canada.
This volume contains almost 10,000 references on the Watchtower
movement and the dozen or so major schisms that have occurred since
its founding in 1879. An introductory chapter reviews the history,
major events, and doctrinal changes of the Jehovah's Witnesses.
Books, book chapters, booklets, dissertations, journal articles,
and book sections that examine the Watchtower movement are
referenced in English and other langauges such as Chinese,
Japanese, Korean, and Turkish. Selectively annotated, the entries
are grouped in five major sections for easy reference. Scholars and
researchers will appreciate the comprehensive list the author has
provided of all literature published by the Watchtower movement
throughout its history.
This book takes a fresh look at Germany's most influential Nazi
leaders, examining their backgrounds, education and convictions. It
provides compelling evidence that the rising influence of
Darwinism, eugenics and race theory in early-twentieth century
society set the foundation for the Nazi pursuit of engineering a
German "master race"-and exterminating European Jews, Gypsies,
Blacks, most Slavs and the Christian religion in the ensuing
madness of the Holocaust of World War II. The effect of social
Darwinism, eugenics and anti-Semitism, and their relative
acceptance in the scientific and medical communities of Germany and
many other countries worldwide, opened the door to mass murder,
medical experimentation and military conquest. This title examines
the roots of Nazi ideology and unmasks the Darwinian "survival of
the fittest" theory behind it.
