In and out of the ghetto : Jewish-gentile relations in late medieval and early modern Germany by R. Po-chia Hsia
This is a fairly good book, but as it is a collection of articles discussing various aspects of Jewish history during the late medieval and early modern period in the region of modern day Germany, it lacks the flow and continuity of a monograph. Some of the articles are wonderfully written; one is particularly horrible. As a whole the articles are informative and thought provoking.
For a single book covering so much material, I feel it is very poorly put and unfair to rate this book a 3 which most people did, and did not explain. Chicken S--t, they are.
