Subtitle: The End of Freedom in America

Nazism, Dr. Peikoff argues, was made possible by the German philosophers who advocated unreason and self-sacrifice—and whose ideas now rule American universities.

"The Ominous Parallels offers a truly revolutionary idea in the field of the philosophy of history. (It) is clear, tight, disciplined, beautifully structured and brilliantly reasoned."—AynRand
