Steven E. Aschheim is Associate Professor of History at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. He is the author of Brothers and Strangers: The East European Jew in German and German-Jewish Consciousness, 1800-1923 (1982).
A model of academic scholarship--highly informative yet accessible even to the lay reader. . . . Especially insightful is Aschheim's balanced treatment of whether Nietzsche can be seen to have been a proto-Nazi or whether the Nazi's claiming him as such is justified. -- Library Journal
