This book, first published in 1997, explores social activism on three continents: Jewish rescue in Europe during World War II, abortion politics in the United States and peace and settler activism in Israel. Dr Gross challenges the strong moral role we often attribute to responsible citizens and emphasizes the competitive and parochial nature of morally inspired activism.
