Blood Libel is written by Magda Teter and published by Harvard University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0674243552 (ISBN 10) and 9780674243552 (ISBN 13).

Drawing on sources in eight countries and ten languages, Magda Teter tells the history of the antisemitic blood libel myth, whose long shadow extends from premodern monastic chronicles to Facebook. The vocabulary and images that crystallized and spread with the invention of the printing press are still with us, as are their pernicious consequences.
