 Rating:  - RRRRR-----ZZZZZZZ------RRRRR-----ZZZZZWell, may be I m going against the flow here, but this book, is one of the most boring, poorly written, waste of money and paper i ve ever read for ages.. Its full of hate, written by a guy who throw up his bitterness and hate of everything non German during pages after pages after pages..., like you would throw up when You re drunk.... It s brilliant to put you to sleep if you ve got insomnia though... we all know about the context in which it was written and what it lead to. so, no need to make some fuss about it and call it a must read. when it s an absolute piece of human junk.and fuel for hate... well. i read it.. did not like it, .. but that s my personal opinion. Rating:  - ay-dolf : bad writer, decent fascist. (if there is such a thing)i stopped reading this book about a quarter of the way into it. i got extremely tired of the repetitive points..i know this is a way to emphasise something, but they seem a tad unneccesary if you know what hitler was all about already (obviously when this book was written, not so much). i also got tired of how poorly written it was...it seems like very often his point becomes lost, as if his attention span is that of a hyperactive child (which makes sense in re-iterating my last point.) obviously this book is intersting just as prying into the mind of jeffrey dahmer is interesting, but these writings, like his paintings, are just plain artless. his inability to write well, combined with his inability to paint were quite likely part reasons ... Read More: Rating:  - A paranoid book by a fiercely intelligent manAs you read 'Mein Kampf', there is no doubt as to Hitler's intelligence: it smacks you in the face. He clearly was not the clownish buffoon he is usually presented as. He tackles many issues cleverly if not clearly: his opinions on parliamentary democracy, reading, and propaganda are particularly interesting. As Golo Mann famously remarked, Hitler was a man who simply couldn't understand moderation, and 'Mein Kampf' furnishes plenty of examples. Parliamentary democracy is bad for Germany? Have the politicians strung up, then. A colonial policy won't secure Germany's status for the future? Conquer eastern Europe, work its inhabitants to death, and plant Germans there. His answers to problems (as he seems them) are shockingly radical and ... Read More: Rating:  - I agree with 100% if I'm honest!!! (his policies NOT his actions)The allies, Christians and Jews have been the ones to write the history books and have had an monopoly on our modern image of Hitler. 'Mein Kampf' was written by Hitler between the two wars and offers a view from the other side. So dont judge a man on his deeds until you hear his side of the story, and most importantly, WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF IT ALL. We all know what Hitler did, (we arent allowed to forget, as any mention of been proud to be white, we are quickly reminded!!)I recommend this book as it is a fascinating read (a little boring when he talks about German politics) but most of it is very good. Hitler talks about germans doing national service BEFORE earning citizenship. He talks about fighting terror with terror and blames abortions and ... Read More: Rating: - I thought it would be a lot worse.I got this book because it's one of those historical things you have to read. My best friend had told me it was basically Hitler's "livejournal". I expected it to be hateful rantings the way some people have claimed it is in these reviews here. I did not find it to be such at all. The book makes some very, currently relevant criticisms of aspects of modern political systems. There is no pretending it doesn't. Having read this book I cannot say that Hitler got nothing right, he was clearly very intelligent and he clearly got quite a few things right. Of course the anti-semitism is there. What does one expect from a German nationalist in those days? Even so I think that there are things we can learn from this book, despite some of the bad ... Read More: |
