Summary:

"...The author of this scholarly book is a political scientist, who lives in Germany. He does a thorough analysis of the seven Harry Potter novels. He comes up with scores of quotations from the original books and poses them in a scholarly context. So the reader can find out about the main subject of the novels: real friendship, racism and how to fight it, tolerance, education and knowledge, love and the nonsense of esotericism. The author can proof how wrong the well known accusations are; and that J.K. Rowling is a truthful supporter of a broad humanistic education fighting intolerance and ignorance. K©ơck does a careful scrutiny on the Harry Potter books and can prove that Ms Rowling does not promote satanism."--Page 4 of cover.
