Book Synopsis
Murdered at Auschwitz, Edith Stein has become a controversial figure in Jewish and Catholic circles. Some believe that her Jewishness makes it inappropriate to declare her a saint of the Holocaust; others find her canonisation a healing symbol. Members of both persuasions speak out in this volume.

Trade Review
For those who seek a variety of views eloquently presented—not only on Edith Stein but on more general issues of the Holocaust—this book is quite possibly the best available. It sheds much light that is very much needed on the relation between Jews and the Church, both then and now. -- David Patterson, Oklahoma State University * National Catholic Reporter *
