Ă propos de ce livre
TIMELY: the alt-right and neo-Nazis are much in the news and their rallies often feature the swastika as a symbol of hate; Nakagaki shows in detail what the symbol is really all about and thus makes fools of those who debase it
A POSITIVE MESSAGE: how wonderful to discover that one of the world's great symbols of evil is in fact an ancient symbol of peace and happiness; this dilutes its meaning and offers hope
UNKNOWN HISTORY: this book reveals a fascinating history of the swastika's use in Asia and how it came to be misappropriated in Germany; history buffs will uncover lots of details and fascinating factoids
AN ACTIVIST AUTHOR: Rev. Nakagaki is very active in the Peace community in New York, and is an engaging speaker and convincing spokesperson for his cause; this book is not just a history, it is a call to action that comes from his heart
