More Translations in 2007 for Internationally Acclaimed Book ETERNAL TREBLINKA
(PRWEB) February 22, 2007 -- ETERNAL TREBLINKA (ISBN 1-930051-99-9) continues to attract international attention. In 2007 it will be published in four more languages--Portuguese, Japanese, French, and Spanish.
It has already been translated and published in Israel, Germany, Italy, Poland, Croatia, and the Czech Republic. Serbian, Slovenian, Russian, and Arabic translations are also in progress.
In 2005 a jury of 30 of the Germany's leading scholars and media figures chose "Für die Tiere ist jeden Tag Treblinka" (ISBN 3-86150-649-1), the German edition of ETERNAL TREBLINKA, as one of the country's ten most important non-fiction books. It was honored alongside books about Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, and World War I by Sachbücher des Monats, sponsored by Süddeutsche Zeitung, Buchjournal, Börsenblatt, and Norddeutscher Rundfunk.
The website of Prijatelji Zivotinja (Animal Friends Croatia) in Zagreb, where the Croatian edition was published in 2005, describes ETERNAL TREBLINKA as follows: "The book that breaks all taboos. The book that fires up controversies all over the world."
The book's title comes from the Yiddish writer and Nobel Laureate, Isaac Bashevis Singer, to whom the book is dedicated. He was the first major modern author to describe the exploitation and slaughter of animals in terms of the Holocaust. "In relation to them, all people are Nazis," he wrote, "for animals it is an eternal Treblinka." (Treblinka was the Nazi death camp north of Warsaw.)
ETERNAL TREBLINKA examines the common roots of animal and human oppression and the similarities between how the Nazis treated their victims and how modern society treats the animals it slaughters for food.
The first part of the book describes the emergence of humans as the "master species" and how we came to dominate the earth and its other inhabitants. The second part examines the industrialization of slaughter of both animals and humans in modern times, while the last part of the book profiles Jewish and German animal advocates on both sides of the Holocaust, including Isaac Bashevis Singer himself.
The American edition, published in 2002 by Lantern Books in New York, is now in its second printing.

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING--
"Compelling, controversial, iconoclastic...strongly recommended...a unique contribution." --Midwest Book Review
"Eternal Treblinka should be on every list of essential reading for an informed citizenry...for the compelling comprehensiveness of the life-and-death story it tells." --National Jewish Post & Opinion
"A must read! -- how mistreatment of animals leads to the dehumanization and extermination of people as 'mere animals.' Well-written and respectful of both Judaism and the Holocaust." --Rabbi Yonassan Gershom
"There are good books...entertaining, useful, informative; great books...whose message reveals a fundamental truth previously unknown or overlooked; and important books...that can save lives and ameliorate suffering: Eternal Treblinka is all three." --Satya Magazine, New York City.
"The moral challenge posed by Eternal Treblinka turns it into a must for anyone who seeks to delve into the universal lesson of the Holocaust." --Maariv (Israeli newspaper)
"Important and timely...written with great sensitivity and compassion. I hope that Eternal Treblinka will be widely read." --Martyrdom and Resistance (Holocaust publication)
"Thorough and thought-provoking book" --Ha'aretz (Israeli newspaper)
"It is seldom that such a comprehensive work of scholarship springs from a heart of compassion in the service of a noble and necessary idea. All the ingredients of your thesis--that the oppression of animals serves as the model for all other forms of oppression--have been available to thinking people for generations, but it remained for you to pull them together." --Helen Weaver, author of The Daisy Sutra
"I urge you to read Eternal Treblinka and think deeply about its important message. " --Dr. Jane Goodall
"...promises to be one of the most influential books of the 21st century." --Dr. Karen Davis, United Poultry Concerns
"It grips like a thriller." --The Freethinker (UK)
